Apparently years ago, the OMO packet used to sit on the laundry window sill, letting the milkman/baker know the the Husband was out, Old Man Out. Occasionally it was known for the packet to be turned upside down, letting the lady next door know the wife was out, Old Woman Out.

Apparently that was in use up here in the Vietnam war, when some wives were really desperate, only ever talked to one guy who said that it was true, the rest said it was an old wives tale.

True story from quite a few years ago, from mate in the water police. They were called out to two blokes in sailing boats, sailing up the harbour crashing into each other. It turned out that they were next door neighbours, formerly best of friends, but one had just found out about a long-running affair between his wife and the other one. They were chastised, warned and told to go home separately and cool off.
The next day, the police thought they'd cruise past, just to be sure that they'd got back OK. There were the two blokes on their boats, on adjacent moorings, carrying out repairs while studiously ignoring each other.

You had to dig deep for that one Kyn

It's amazing what crap I can find up there, but ask me what I did yesterday and I'd really have to think hard about it.
