PIC MIKE WALKER, MIKE WALKER BILDER RADIERER Hannah Walker kann nie beschuldigt werden, ihre Verwandten auf die falsche Weise geschrubbt zu haben, nachdem ihr Tante-Verbündeter in ihrem Loft einen riesigen Schlingerzug von 1.500 Gummis entdeckt hat, von denen viele noch in ihren Originalverpackungen enthalten sind. Hannah, sieben, hatte gerade eine eigene Sammlung begonnen, als Allison Walker, 41, bis zu 30 Jahre lang ungestört zwei Koffer voller davon fand.

PIC MIKE WALKER, MIKE WALKER PICTURES ERASERS Hannah Walker can never be accused of rubbing her relatives up the wrong way after her Auntie Ally discovered a huge haul of 1, 500 rubbers, many of them still in their original wrappers, in her loft. Hannah, seven, had just started a collection of her own when Allison Walker, 41, found two suitcases full of them undisturbed in for up to 30 years.
