just curious as to what people have found in their car
after having a strange smell in my thinking it was a damp smell after spilling a fair bit of water in it a couple of weeks ago. thinking it would go away i didnt think too much about it but the smell was still there . so with a bit of fishing around under the seats i found the culprit. not a nice thing to find . remembering that about 4 weeks ago we took some fish that were vac packed to a friend and abviously one pack had slipped out and went under the seat. it wasnt until the bag had swollen enough so that the underside of the seat had put a very small hole in the plastic allowing a small amount of the gases to escape.yeah your thinking , gross , how could you not know. just goes to show how good the cryovac bags are when done right. So here it is, how many of you have found something like this , weather it be old bait thats slipped out of its bag or a fish that has gone wandering in your car or boat and then found weeks later after trying to find the smell. All i can say is thank god it wasnt summer

Did a early morning bait
Did a early morning bait freezer raid and left a big bag of Red Emperor heads out by mistake. The Mrs thought the smell was an esky that hadnt been cleaned properly but it just kept getting worse.
Does anyone know where the love of god goes, when the waves turn the minutes to hours?

Herring
Did a salmon camp at Hamelin bay many years back and one of the crew loved to play practical jokes, nothing like climbing in the sleeping bag after 14 hour to find a frog or rocks in there or that he had sewn the cuffs on your overalls up so you just about dislocated you shoulders trying to get them on.
Well he had to go to Perth for a week and 4 days after he left we got a phone message from the shop, "where are the f@#%^^&g herring" We had wrapped a herring up in plactic and jammed it up under the dashboard in his car. Being in winter he was using the heater and the fish was starting to pong, he knew what it was, just couldn't find it.
For some reason when he got back there was no more practical jokes with sleeping bags or personal gear.
Have stuck half an occy in someones hub cap before, usually takes a while to find that.

found a featherless chook
found a featherless chook living under the bonnet of a mates car when in Merredin. He was using the car on a daily basis, was not mechanically minded and brought the car around to see what i thought it was worth as a trade in. Popped the bonnet and there nesting on top of the manifold was this bald, featherless chook....true! He had no idea how long the chook had been there?

Old fart
after quite a few drinks, put the wine casket on the floor in the front seat and as he tried to get in half whacked kicked the opener on the wine cask, you guessed it red wine everywhere. The ute smelled like a wine cellar for weeks. Glad the boys in blue didn't decide to pull me over on the way home, phewie they would have thought I was p%$ed out of my brain.
Cleaning the boat after a couple of days pulling pots, wondered why there was blow flies hanging around the fuel tank, old fart looked behind the fuel tank and a kackier was rather smelly, glad fisheries didn't go through the boat, how do you explain a dead kacker that you genuinely didn't see crawl behind the fuel tank.
Certain person in our street would love to put some occie in the roof hahahah

Hi Ya, Having no idea
Hi Ya,
Having no idea what a "karker" (didn't notice I got the spellling different) is I looking it up on google. Here is what cam back.
Karker - A senior citizen, especially one that is verging upon infirmity and /or isn't completely aware of his/her/its surroundings or what constitutes appropriate contemporary behaviour.
LOL.
Then noticed my spelling was different to yours so tried again (and still got it wrong)
Kaker - Can be used as a euphemism for and rhymed with motherfucker. Based on an Yiddish word "kaker" - literally "a fart" as in "alter kaker" - "old fart". A simple way to comply with FCC regulations without beeping, and still convey the message. Would be easily understood in New York and by people who understand such originally Yiddish words as putz, schlep, chutzpah, verklempt, etc.
Oh, well, I think I'll leave it there.
Cheers.

gees Ody. i hope you werent being nasty there
. its amazing the difference in what words can mean by changing 1 letter.but i think both words could fit in with the age group of Roberta and her old fart husband.. Roberta. at least now you can use 1 word to describe your husband, instead of old fart just use "Kaker". No offence intended

Herring in the boat
Haven't discovered anything nasty in my car, but I did leave a herring in a hessian bag in the boat once. I upended the bag to empty them out, and obviously one stayed put. Needless to say I discovered it a few days later!
I used to tour with the Crusty Demons for a few years and some of the guys (crew, not riders) got kicked out of a hotel where they were staying while on tour for being too rowdy. They poked a couple of raw prawns down inside the curtain rail in the room before vacating. The hotel management chased them for a couple of weeks trying to get them to tell them where the smell was coming from, but they let them suffer!

When I used to live a little
When I used to live a little closer to town, people kept trying to break into my car. Eventually they had busted the locks, so it was no longer lockable. The next thing that happened was someone left an umbrella in the car.

two funny ones.
first was a hire car and when we took my laptop out from behind the seat, found a ladies pair of lingerie under the passengers seat! When handling back to Hertz, said it was in a plastic bag in the cubby… girl at the desk went bright red, guessed it may have been hers!...lol
second one was finding the cooler box in the boot of the Tiida with bait in it from a bout a month before. Thank God we did not open it in the car! Went to a tip-skip and tossed it in there, only to see maggots etc… come out as the lid came off!!!

Left a bag
of mulies in the wife's Kia Sportage at Pardoo - small leak that returned in humid weather as an almighty stink until she sold the car. Worst thing in MY car was a large kangaroo scrotum complete with contents after a shooting trip to Cataby. Worse for the perpetrator as it was posted back to him - and opened by his wife.

not really the car, but i had come back from an arvo flick at hillaries with a couple of skippy and herring etc. must have forgotten one of the skippy, because about 2 months later i went up the back yard to get a bucket for a fish and smelt a horrible smell. looked in one of the buckets and there was a rotting skippy, covered in maggots and everything. now, ive got a real strong stomach, but that made me dry reach.

Hi Ya, In a different life I
Hi Ya,
In a different life I worked for the govt agency that was responsible for selling surplus govt vehicles. Well, one particular high profile dept was well known for leaving live ammunition in their vehicles. The guy that ran the place had a 2lt ice cream container in his office full them. The biggie though was when he found the .22 rifle in the boot.
So much for checking the vehicle before sending off for disposal to the public!
Cheers.
