If they're past the bend who cares? Those who have to unblock them. Blockages are caused by toilet paper, not ****. most obviously with the dunny in the shed etc. The block of flats I lived in before building the house actually had a dunny for the gardener. Aren't all Aussie dunnies in the shed? They never were in the shed when we had dunny carts collecting the **** and **** that was in tins under the seat and emptied weekly into the dunny cart. https://www.google.com/search?q=dunn...ralia&tbm=isch Great job, eh ? What about outhouses? We call those dunnys. Only the yanks have outhouses. I thought any toilet was a dunny, no matter if it's indoors or outdoors. a cludgy if you don't mind ... or should that be cludgie ...think so Naw - 'nettie'. -- Ian |
