When Stripping Off Old Wallpaper,

you normally expect to find either, older wallpaper, or the original plaster wall,

but rarely you might find a message from the past, when Charlotte Morrison decided to strip all the wallpaper layers in one of her house’s rooms, she found something interesting — a decades-old message that was hidden on the wall. It was a wallpapering tip dated December 21, 1997, written by one “Jon”, She uploaded a photo of the note to Facebook, which reads, “If you ever need to wallpaper this room again, it will take eight rolls of wallpaper. I bought just six rolls at £17.00 per roll, (at today's rate $21.46), I didn’t have enough (it really pissed me off).” She told Fox News that it “made the hours spent stripping the wallpaper worth it.” the post quickly became viral, and it eventually reached Jon’s relatives, the man, however, was not fond of social media, Morrison hasn’t spoken to Jon directly, she explained, “I have spoken to (Jon’s relative),” she said. “She asked him questions I had asked and he confirmed them, he also told us about features in the house that was here when we moved. She said he hates social media, and I told her social media thinks he is a legend.” Morrison originally planned to paint the room, but ever since finding the room, she said that she would like to “test Jon’s math.” image credit: Charlotte Morrison/ Facebook, I wonder if other writings found on walls have been this helpful?
