So grandpa was into scrap metal.
He'd collect bikes, computers, bathtubs, heaters, cables... Pretty much anything with metal in it.
He even carried a magnet at all times to see if something was magnetic and if it could fetch a good metal price.
So the pastor had a little story about grandpa and mentioned he loved his scrap metal "that you still needed" and everyone laughed because it was true Laugh | :laugh:
My parents were renovating their house when they were missing some cables, turned out grandpa took them because he thought they were old cables.
When I first moved into this house, the whole block was new and none of the new inhabitants had any fences yet, and he almost took some metal thing, like an umbrella or some such, from my neighbors garden.
"Grandpa no! You can't just go and take stuff from other people's garden!" Laugh | :laugh:
Everyone had a story about grandpa and scrap metal Laugh | :laugh:
We even joked that he wasn't allowed near buildings with lots of metal because they'd collapse after he visited Poke tongue | ;-P
