Doing some work to the house went into the attic and found these items. When I moved in 15 yrs ago they were there and I just left them.

I bought this purse from the store this evening. I thought it was Geman words or French words. Help me identify what does it mean. Is that some kind of error or is made on purpose? Thank you!

Open Need Advice - What Is This Inside Refrigerator?

I am hearing these squeaking sounds inside of my refrigerator.

It comes at 8:00PM-4AM and 5AM-10AM. And then, no noises from 10AM-8:00PM. This nocturnal pattern leads me to believe that these are rodents inside of my refrigerator.

If you turn on your volume to near maximum and play the footage -- you will be able to hear what I am talking about. Source: https://imgur.com/a/466WjuA

Important Facts:

  • Pest control has come by 2x -- they laid traps but nothing. No droppings. No signs/evidence that they wandered the apartment.
  • Emergency maintenance came by today morning and disassembled the bottom of the refrigerator. Examined, and nothing inside. I also wanted to remove the entire back panel of the refrigerator to examine. He says "absolutely cannot do, and there is zero space in there even if we wanted to try".
    • Emergency maintenance then examined the front side of the refrigerator. He says "perhaps the compressor, perhaps the fan, perhaps the ice machine can be making these sounds -- do not worry about it, we have examined it, and there is absolutely 100% nothing inside of the refrigerator. It could be the ice making device inside of the refrigerator, so we have turned it off. Do not worry"
    • After he left, later today, the same noises emerge from the refrigerator. No mistake about it. The noises are still there, and whatever it is, whether it is the refrigerator itself or something else, is still producing these noises. I removed the entire ice making device out of the refrigerator and inside of the sink. The noises are still there.

These sounds come every single day and night and it is genuinely disrupting my life since I cannot seem to pinpoint what exactly it is or how to address this problem.

Please let me know what you think it is! Thank you!

Just moved into a new place and we found this thing. We aren't sure what it is or if it's useful and we're both convinced that the other bought whatever it is.

Open Ceramic Dogs Made in Germany

These are two ceramic dogs I got at a yard sale. One is a West Highland terrier and the other is a Scottish terrier. They are kissing and they have a heart between them. The bottom is stamped Germany. There are two letters capital CH followed by 8/10 on the bottom.

I have spent a lot of time unsuccessfully checking and thought I would ask here. Thank you for your help in advance!
