Glad it wasnt me. Gran's loo was downstairs and shared between the 2 flats on the level above. Just a loo tho, no bath. lovely granite flats those in Aberdeen. sell for a fortune now
Yes, those sorts of houses have lots of character. I like them - bit like the old Glasgow tenements :)
Couldn't ever imagine a shared loo (or an outside one)... Must've been baltic in the winter!! :eek:

Chicken with green pepper and black bean sauce and pancake rolls, knowing this take away there'll be enough for lunch tomorrow:)
My nan lived in shepherds bush ( London ) had one outside loo in back yard and one tin bath. These housesQuote:

Presumably, they now have inside toilets? ;)

One would hope so ! Do remember using the loo in backyard but never the tin bath, sometimes you just
miss out on things in life I suppose.
