Courgette idea no.1
ReplyDeleteGet an overgrown courgette and slice off one end and scoop out the inside as best you can. Now use the hollowed out courgette as a place to keep your valubles; rings, cameras, passports, etc. and keep it inside the fridge. No burgler would even think to look inside a courgette.
Try substituting courgettes for oranges in the well known family game 'Oranges and Polo Mints'
