Default Wife is back from holidays.

Last night my wife has come back from holidays in Poland. She has brought me things that I wanted. Two ham presses and a toilet seat. She decided to bring them in carry on bag. At every airport security control (Warsaw, Amsterdam and Toronto), she created very big commotion.

2 ham presses and a toilet seat? I'll be honest, I would be confused if I saw that in an xray machine too.

I hope those are Iskenderian valve springs in the ham press!

Think you'd have a tough time finding those razor blades here any more. As for the barb wire, could have bought a toilet seat like that at Irvines, near Carstairs, no need to bring it from Poland.

Grizz,

Do they have any toilet seats at Irvines with ammo in them?

My wife's grandparents had a toilet seat that had a crack in it, which spread when you sat down.......we called it the 'bum biter' for good reason........looks pretty mild compared to what is in that one in the pics.........hard to imagine what would motivate someone to build that!

You must be some big shot rich guy.

Wasting good barbed wire and razor blades like that.

And a fancy ham press yet. What would your babcha say about you wasting your money on these extravagances?

Hope your wife had a good visit.

What a coincidence. I always said that if I ever went to Poland I was going to bring back a barbed wire/razor toilet seat AND a ham press! Crazy coincidence eh?

Worth checking. I know I saw one somewhere.

Your wife goes on vacations without you. She brings back something for you to sit on, embedded with razor blades. There's a message in all this you seem to be missing...

Say Iksra:

If I had a really hairy butt would those razor blades work in removing the hair?

Just asking.

I can think of a lot of things I may bring back from a trip to Poland, but ham press and toilet seat are not on that list. My hat off to you sir, this is definitely the most random souvenir I have ever heard of.

Oki, That was what I have asked her to bring. No message here.
Grey, I did not see an electric version of the seat.
357, After over 30 years of family visits, I have got all kinds of souvenirs from Poland. This one seams to be really sharp. Ham press you can get only there.
