My parents bought their house, an ordinary Victorian red brick terrace, before they married in 1928. There was a sink in the kitchen with running water, the hot water being heated by a boiler behind the fire in the front room. |

We lived in caravans for a number of years. The 'Bessie Car' had an indoor bath, but no plumbing. A board and foam mattress was put on this - and it was my bed :-( Opposite were bunk beds - this was the 'area' between the kitchen bit and my parent's bedroom. |

I watched a few TV programmes this morning including one about Housing Enforcement Officers and Homes Under The Hammer (which included a house with an old outside loo) |

Not a hundred miles from where I live in an otherwise pleasant area, there can be found there a public '(in)convenience' that can only be described as the dirtiest, filthiest, smelliest & a God-dam awful establishment - aka a public loo. |

we had a toilet like that when I was growing up - every so often Dad would dig a big hole in the garden to empty it - in the summer when we had been eating tomatoes the seeds would germinate and we had lots of tomato plants - now that's what I call recycling :-D |

We lived in a farm cottage a way outside the village and had a bucket lavatory which was emptied into a pit and rotted down for the garden. |
