0 - 3 toilets in 30 years

[4hero]

When I was 5 my parents split up, I went to live with my Mum. We moved into what only could be called "A Hell Hole", but it had a roof I suppose. It was funny, our new home was called "Hope Place"

The most unfortunate thing about Hope Place was that it had an outside toilet at the bottom of the garden (remember this was 30 years ago). Money was tight, there was none (you think this is a credit crunch!). I will never forget the day I dropped a brand new toilet roll down the toilet and was absolutely petrified to tell Mum (money was this tight), I did tell her though .

I now have three bathrooms and have never dropped a toilet roll down the loo since. Progress.



Any more stories from your youth that could be tied in with photos? Let us hear

• shudder* just the three? A bare minimum of four commodes is required in any home...
