How. Very. Random.

I was cleaning the sink and noticed there was something rattling about in the sink plughole. On closer inspection I found it was a coin. Which is an odd thing to have in the plughole of your sink anyway, but this one was a strange colour - kind of yellowish - and had twelve corners.

Taking it out, I found it was a threepenny piece. From 1944.

This coin is the same age as my mum. How on earth did it end up in our sink?

My gran had an old thrupenny bit set into a pendant years ago. I wonder what happened to it...

I want to run reality in reverse sometimes, just to follow things like this.

You didn't hear any whoosh whoosh noises or see any blue flashing lights recently?

It is your mum, in coin form.

Gosh. how old is your house, older than that age? Maybe it's been in there for a long time but has only recently become dislodged?

It could be worth a bit of money (hehe, it's a coin!), check ebay!
