Heard today on the H.F. Radio that there has been a fire in the Dunny at Durba Springs. Anyone heading that way or anyone that knows anything about how much damage has been done to the
toilet, please contact this
forum with a "damage report" if at all possible, so that we can implement a repair party.

You may need a coroner if some poor bugger was sitting on it when it went up !

. . . the flammable gases emitted while someone was sitting on it may have been the cause of the fire !

I know who did it - his name was
Burnie Zarsoff.
If it was an explosion, it would have been his brother Bluey Zarsoff :-)

Saw a great band in the Towradgi Pub in
Wollongong many years ago called The Fabulous Zarsoff Brothers;
Bernie, Bluey and Terry...

John, you should update your memory, or wasn't it a lasting experience, because the tubs that the "rubbish" which you obviously contributed to are all plastic and the floor that you put your "dainty" little feet on was wood, and the door that you closed so that no one could see you was wood too.

LOL probably right, it wasn't a lasting experience.
It was a couple of years ago now and the old memory is not so good anymore. :-)

Ah reminds me of the burnt bum affair. Some
bright spark made up a concoction of diesel & lime to keep the smell down.
Bloke goes in lights a smoke drops the match KAABOOOM.
Poor bugger staggers out all singed, covered and ragged.
Had to call the RFDS to come get him.

Ha ha ha, Same thing happened to my younger brother. Old man had made up a mixture of petrol and kero and put down the long drop. Younger brother decides some time later to burn off the excess paper(in those days used crumbled newspaper for
toilet paper).
Blxxdy near blew the
toilet off the foundations, brother had singed his eyebrows and most of his hair. Funny now but he could have been killed. About the only irreponsible thing I think the old man ever done.
Cheers Pete
