People say, no bathroom? How did you bathe, wash or go to the loo?
You had a potty under the bed, you had an outside privvy for during the day, you washed at the kitchen sink, and to bathe once a week you had a tin bath that you filled with water, in front of the fire, and every member of the family took turns.
Our water was from the big tank outside fed by the downpipe, so lovely soft rainwater, which was heated up in the copper in the wash-house and carried in with buckets.
