While I was stationed in Germany, I rented out my home in Stilton to USAFE (as it was then) at Alconbury.
I received got a letter from the letting agent who was intrigued to see tin foil taped to the inside of the study window. The tenant, a good ol boy from the south answered the door and said "Oh, that.. it's just to keep the piglets warm".
They did really weird things too, like having the Colonel pitch up one day to vote on the Yard of the Month contest. My superb garden wasn't a..
yard 
. Although you'd be forgiven for thinking the inside of the place apparently was. The replacements for the Clampetts were, thankfully, normal.
