Mahogany wouldn't look all that bad in my place. Wonder why they call it a thunder box though?

Re: Interesting Bathroom Fixture


An original repo of a 'crapper' for nearly $4K, who'd have guessed.

Robert, original WC's/commodes were in the bedroom. Last time that I was in Europe, many still were. BTW, they don't flush. There is just a pan. Lay heavy and you get to sleep with it.

You're right! That's Pounds! Glad that it wasn't a quote.

At least it drains. That has to be worth a few quid.

Probably because it was designed the day after drinking lots of beer and eating lots of pork (now there's some thunder) !!!
