Picture this.
An abandoned house.
Out of nowhere a teapot and a coffeepot appear on the front steps.
Handsome.
From where?
By whom?
Why?
Tell me.

That is so obviously a journey interrupted by a cataclysmic event. Two travellers from the Great Beyond (time travellers, probably, but they could simply be journeying in 3-D land) stopped at this spot for a well-earned spot of tea. The party had to involve at least two people, because one wanted coffee and the other wanted tea. The same could be true of a larger group, but it would be harder to sneak up and surprise such a group so quickly that they would have to abandon their pots in their haste to avoid the conflict. And the surprise must have come along just after they landed on this spot, since I notice they didn't even have time to neuralize a fire.
My guess? I'd say there is at least a 63% chance they were interrupted by Vogon poetry.
Andrew,
Um, um, er, er, thanks. Is your dosage okay? Thanks for the intergalactic commentary.
