Found 2 x £1 Coins

According to my neighbour the S/H whitegoods shop (who sees more broken
washing machines than any of us do), the coin with the most destructive
power is the 5p (the new tiny ones). Washing machines were designed to
resist errant pennies, but these new little ones just go through the
trap and straight into the pump impeller.

And under-wired bra wires, of course. The most perfectly shaped bit of
metal to fall through any trap, no matter if it's a sink or a washing
machine, etc. Do away with boobs all together, I say. :-)
