shelby46 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 I remember it well! Tin bath hung on the wall outside, outside loo across 2 yards, even in snow - and then the scream when tall visitors went to it. They strangled themselves on the washing line because my mum was only little!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot on. Reading & ******** at the same time,if it was light because we had no lights in the bogs in those days.Also sometimes when you pulled the flush a great gush of water came over the top of the cistern & wet you through.
