Just make a hole, it's not that hard

Well, I had my first experience of an outside toilet today! Quite a few of the others have regaled us with stories of the outside toilets and the horrendous events that ensued. After India I thought, what can be so bad... Today I found out. Try doing it in the dark! In India, people generally had buckets of water or a tap and a bucket for one to do one's business, wash and wipe and on one goes. It seems that they were five star accommodations. The bad ones at least had a stack of leaves for one to use to wipe up. Here, I should be so lucky. Today, I finished a study and some of the sisters passed by and said to join them popping in on someone else. Walking along I had that harrowing feeling that I was going to burst and there was nowhere to go. Arriving at the house, I went followed the directions given to an outside loo, with no light, with no hole, with a tiny tap and a flat floor. What was a man to do??? I went for it in my best 'hoicking' action, crying inside of the thought of it all going on me and my shoes! I know this is a disgusting post, but my posts are far too serious and this was one of the funniest things that has happened in a while so I thought I must share. Anyway, in the absence of any kind of ability to clean it all up and stuff, I did what anyone would do - I ran! Ashamed but slightly funny. All I can say is thank goodness I bought 30 bottles of pocket hand sanitizer when I left - a god send! As you all frequent your porcelain this morning, give a thought for those of us living on the edge. X
