I had to have mine removed/ knocked down about 25 years ago before they would give me my mortgage, part of the agreement, surveyors and all that stuff.

I cant remember them over here - over in ireland yes but cant remember them in our back garden. As far as i can remember we've always had an inside loo. Next door had an outbuilding which they used for storing stuff but that was when i was about 4 when we moved from there.

I still have my outside loo. It’s a god send for when we’ve been having curry for tea.

Oh my god, that's brought back some memories - not good ones either. When I was little we had an outside loo and I remember being frightened to death of fallin down it, it seemed like it went on forever. Best day of my life when my mum & dad had our bathroom installed - sheer heaven :)

My Mum still has an outside Lavvy...and a bin hoil......but alas the coal hoil was pulled down.
When I was young (many years ago)...the coal hoil was the equivalent of the naughty step....and yes I did spend some time locked in there in the dark.
Now today, that would constitute child abuse and the social workers would have whisked me off to a place of safety. Did it scar me mentally? NO...of course it didn't.

We've still got a bin oil which is shared with next door but coil oil and lavvy are long gone.

I used to wear my cossie as well Willow. Also use to put on homemade sun oil, think it was olive oil and vinager. Be up for child abuse now putting that on our children.
