You'll have to trust me on this...


They looked a lot better than they smelt!

Well they certainly are gorgeous although they could do with a good clean. The highest quality materials were used, no doubt about that.

This has got to be a potential business line Ian. Such style. My godfather had one like that in one of his toilets in his mansion in Donegal. He also had a Picasso sketch above the toilet. Yes he was a snob. A nice one.

Oh by the way when I clicked on your comment on sombodies post it took me to the profile page and this blog was not listed. Interesting. Blogger Demons?

I ought to clarify that the smell wasn't actually that of previous use- rather it was the smell of neglect and decay. They are great fittings, certainly and the marble urinal flush tank with the window in it is curious.

I can recall that Newcastle had a large stock of ornate subterranean public toilets.

Colin, bloglist fixed now, I've hidden the quasi-blogs to just show the main one in my profile.

Ugh! They'd look all right with a clen-up. Who was that posh woman who wrote a book about the Victorian loos of Britain?
