1. Yes. RandomKoolzip kept it next to his bed.
Or maybe that was his snare drum.

In any case: hey Koolzip! I forgot to empty the chamber pot. You might wanna take care of that soon.

2. I think he pretends to sleep while you bank-shot the
stream off his cheek. That's what I've heard anyway

3. Um, actually yes....
Sometimes it was a long trip to the outhouse in the middle of a dark stormy night.

8. Did you also bathe in a washtub?
I did, at my grandma's in Texas. Have wonderful memories of "roughing it" there.

11. OMG Maddy YES - in a TIN one in England
I remember my grandfather loved getting to take "Shank's Pony" to the pub while grandma bathed me. That damn thing would be near the fire and would get HOT. I would squawk HOW ABOUT THROWING IN SOME SPUDS AND CARROTS and she would tell me to hush. :D

13. LOL! Our grandmother would check us from top to bottom for ticks...
because we played in the woods all day, and then bathe us in cold water in a washtub. Yes, tin.

She just passed recently. I treasure these memories of visiting her house. :D

10. Hey Skittles
You know of course that when I was an innocent child I slipped into a tall chamber pot butt first and had to be rescued by my mother.
