    Flushing toilet?? You were lucky. We had to share a hole in the ground with next door!! It had a wooden platform with a seat shape cut out but the output went ten feet down into a stinking sewer, and NO flush.

    We found a hamster in our outside bog, my dad caught it and we kept it in our old gas clothes boiler (we called it a copper) until I made a home for it in metalwork class at school. We had him for at least 2 years so I think it must have been quite young when we got him.

    Hands up if you've used one of these. If not, count your blessings and shut the **** up about over-privileged boomers.

    I was the last one in. Horrible when you think about it, but it never bothered me at the time.
