We Yooks have missed out on a whole bunch of stories by not having outhouses like yours in the States... although there is the tale of how one day my mother was about to 'get comfortable' when the damn thing fell in two.. she was left hovering betwixt and between and in a state of some dishabile and unable to reach the bolt in her predicament.

Oh how we laughed!! That is, until we were told it would be 3 days before a new one could be installed! My but the roses were good that year!
