Why the interest!

At first it looked like a typical, rundown, tied-down, "whistle plop" dunny. Not so!! This dunny was carefully positioned over an open, unused mine shaft! A very "long drop" dunny indeed!

Omg, above a mineshaft? i think i wait for the next stop, not gonna sit there haha..

[Sarah]

Makes you think

[Chris K]

wow! that's a bit scary

[FBailey]

Oh my goodness me! Best not to drop a mobile phone down that one!!

[Jane Pittenger]

Now that’s a place a child wouldn’t want for toilet training

[Taffy]

Unexpected, but practical I guess

[NZkites]

You could be put off using it in case there was still someone working down there.

[Marnie]

Yikes, now that is one looooong drop. Wouldn't wanna lose your mobile or keys down there.

[Casablanca]

Oh my oh my!! Let's hope no-one ever wants to open up that mine again!!

[Suzanne]

This made me titter! Love it

[Delwyn Barnett]

Wow! Good use of a ready made hole!!

@cruiser Hi Chris - not for the faint hearted. :)

@fbailey Hi FB - the 3 boys (actually supposedly grown-up, old, sensible? men) in our small group all just had to throw stones down it to hear how long it took for them to hit bottom!! :)

[Rob Z]

@jgpittenger LOL - he/she may never recover from the experience - not a good start to toilet training. :)

[Rob Z]

@taffy Practical they are out here - not so good on safety!!

[Rob Z]

@nzkites LOL - apparently there are miles and miles of diggings under the ground - many mined out and empty - but still with shafts to the surface. :)

[Rob Z]

@golftragic The "boys!" just had to throw rocks down it to see how deep it was!!!

[Rob Z]

@Casablanca A truly horrible thought!!

[Rob Z]

@suzanne234 They are a funny lot out there - nothing goes to waste! A hole is a very handy thing!! LOL

[Rob Z]

@dkbarnett So true Delwyn - a hole is a very handy thing!! LOL

[Marnie]

@robz Of course!!!
