Are you telling us you piss a lot Mr. Bonz :?

Just curious

Mr. Curious,

Oh yeah, and that too. The dog refuses to drink from the yellow puddle by the back door. One thing about Wally, is he treats his sacred Coors as food, so thats the only nourishment his emaciated body gets. I tend to eat something solid once in awhile, like a peanut or two.


Best regards,

Bonz

Mr. Bonz,

This yellow puddle you have by the back door... does that mean you have no internal sanitation.. :shock:

I knew you Yanks were a bit lacking in modern technology... but I thought you all had an indoor bog..

Amazed

Teddy,

Most of us have indoor plumbing, but outdoor relief is just so much more satisfying.

Mr. Teddy,

Mrs. Bonz hates it when I use one of the indoor growlers. Mainly because I tend to stand about 10 feet away and aim for one of her cigarette butts floating in the bowl. I'm also trying to take it easy on the septic system. The last time I had it worked on was about $1,400 I could have spent on guns, blades, and alcohol.


Best regard's,

Bonz

Mr. Bonz,

It appears to me that you need the services of what we over here call a "Privy Builder" .... a specialist who comes along and digs a hole on your property (usually quite handy to the house) then he erects a small wooden shelter over it and secures a nice comfy plank from wall to wall and positions the hole in the plank (or holes for a multi-sitter) directly above the hole in the ground.

Of course they're a dying breed over here... what with our high-tech plumbing arrangements and all ... we have little need for them in all but the most remote homesteads. They return periodically to reposition the "privy" over a freshly dug hole.

Much cheaper than a septic tank and the end "product" grows beautiful vegetables and/or flowers...

Just a thought

Teddy,

As you know, we have them in the USA and they are known as "outhouses". Some 25 years ago I did a photographic essay on American outhouses, featuring classic examples from many states.

How many of the states fitted doors as standard... or were they an "optional extra" everywhere.??

Living more "tightly packed" as it were over here doors were (are) a MUST .... there's nothing so irksome as having the neighbors staring at you while you're studying the small print in Playboy magazine with your trousers around your ankles waiting for nature to take it's course.

Best wishes
