Perils of the outhouse

Warri. Are they a talking bird like a parrot?

Galahs are parrots. This one sings, meows and does a bit of talking.

Outhouses are a luxury compared to pit toilets. You just have to squat, no seat. But most don't smell as the holes are very very deep. Only smells if someone misses. layful:

OR if you fall in that pit.

OR if you fall in that pit.

The hole is too small for other than a baby or toddler to fall in. layful:

I guess I'm a bit too uh hem...sensitive on the issue of bathroom habits. We used to go to a campsite that was fairly rustic. It was in the woods but you could hook up on the main electrical line if you wanted. They also had several indoor restroom facilities. The one closest to the campsite wasn't maintained so well...spiders and any number of creepy crawlies. There was a second building maybe three miles down. Single room toilet and coin operated shower. I learned how to hold it long enough to not venture into the "spider bathroom". I applaud the rest of you not being afraid of nature.

Sears and Roebuck use to sell them, $41.00. Couldn't buy the materials, these days, for that.

Then there was the book called "Race to the outhouse" by Willie Makit...illustrated by Betty Dont.
