We've now posted a video on Youtube of our flat. The link is...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSdn0TgqQ-kFor those of you who thought I was merely jesting (and I know there were a fair few people who were thinking "there's no way Daniel will live like that!") of what we were expecting - it went something along the lines of.....imagine your garage, with a squat toilet in the corner, a length of string to serve as a wardrobe and some packing cases to sleep on - then what we have to call home issheer bloody luxury(said in a Pythonesque manner).For those of you that didn't hear me say that, be warned.....this video isn't for the sqeamish or feint hearted!That said, we've had an email from a volunteer in north east India who has arrived at his flat to find the toilet is nothing more than a hole in the balcony floor. It reminds me of Blackadder when trying to sell his home to Mrs Pants in "Money":Mrs Pants: "What about the privy?"Blackadder: "It is the latest in open air orifices with a wide capacity gutter installation belowMrs Pants: "You mean you c**p out of the window"
