Several years ago I had to assess an Insurance claim on a local Bungalow. You couldn't move around the place for newspapers and 'stuff' piled high, all neatly stacked but most rooms only really accessible by a 'corridor'. I thought at the time that a problem was waiting in the wings and it should be brought to the attention of....????? Who? The owner/occupier of the property was proud, upright and possibly ex military, in his late Fifties perhaps. Who was I to interfere? You guessed it, it went 'up' big time a year down the line if I recall and I just thought about it. What should I have done? Reply to this message | Report message

>> Documentary about an extreme hoarder living in Surrey. Only watched a bit of it. Not a patch on Mr Trebus of Life of Grime fame, IMHO. www.youtube.com/watch?v=seavf2cUjzw Reply to this message | Report message

>> Mr Trebus had mental health problems if you asked me. IIRC, he was a Polish prisoner of war in a concentration camp, where he would have lost everything. When the war was over, etc, he tried his best to make sure nothing was ever taken from him again. Reply to this message | Report message

I've known a few ex pow's over the years, including some held by the Japs in WW2, I would say they all had 'issues' as my Counsellor friend refers to it, but quite harmless people, mostly, Spike Milligan had suffered from shell shock at Monte Casino in WW2, and had more than one mental breakdown later in life, but fortunately he could channel his manic energy into his work, otherwise he would have been locked up, back in 'those' days.
