Inside Uncle Vic's

Here's what can pile up when you don't let anyone into your house for 40 years.

My Uncle Vic has been around for a while. 93 years to be exact. He was born in a house in Sydney, never married, never had kids and decided to stay in that same house his entire life.

One day, for no apparent reason, he decided to stop letting people come over – nobody could even get past the front door. For over forty years, not one person was allowed inside his house, until he finally decided it was time to move into a nursing home. This is just some of what I found when I finally got to cross that threshold.
