HI Mandy
Pity there is no snow you could have filled Kettle with it lol

Alexander Cummings?

Probably Mandy
I found a John Harrington and a Thomas Telford

Yes it must have been awful

It actually reminds me of my friend in Wodonga.
Her husband is Croatian and they went back to see his family a few years ago. He comes from a very poor peasant part where there is no running water or roads etc. My friend not speaking Croatian and them not speaking English had to ask her hubby to ask his sister to show her where the Toilet was. So off they go. Down some steps where underneath the house was a Cow and a Pig and a Goat. The sister pointed to where she had to go and it was a pile of Hay next to the Animals. She said while she was doing what she had to do the Cow was Mooing and the Pig was Grunting. The goat was watching her

Can you just imagine that they still are so primitive

I never stopped laughing when she told me

He was the first to patent it Mandy.

Alexander Cummings Invented the Flush Toilet in the Year 1775

In the year 1775 AD Alexander Cummings invents the flush toilet.

these are the words off the site I got it from. I suppose if he patented it first then that would make him the inventor as it wouldn't be recognised by the others if it wasn't patented

Yes Jackie,been there my ex was from there.
B I L in Oz wanted to big note himself sent a microwave as a wedding gift to cousin over there in the 70s.
Got thank you saying
"Lovely we're sure it will be useful when they connect electricity to the village"

First to patent it is officially the inventor Thats why you often get different answers.

I suppose we take what we have for granted Daphne
We don't realize people still live like that

I saw a TV on an extension cord in front of the priests house with the whole village gathered to watch the news.The only bicycle belonged to the policeman but I also saw a luxury Modern Art Museum full of masterpieces.

That would be right Daphne they don't help their own do they.
Money spent on the wrong things.
They think Modern Technology is not needed for the working class

Best memory of there was coming back to my hotel room to find the maids trying to squeeze one of their number 3 sizes bigger than me into an evening dress of course it split.You should have seen their faces I couldn't be angry I was laughing so much.
