For brian



The toilet is nestled in between the kitchen sink and the tub, which is als o located in the kitchen. The space is so tight that, in theory, someone wi th long enough arms could stir his risotto while he was also? you k now... baking brownies.


wouldn't be allowed under UK Building Regs.

probably not allowed over there either, doesn't stop people here doing it anyway

who knew electric hobs doubled-up as phone chargers?

Reminds me of The Family, the 1974 reality series, where the bath was in the kitchen, usually concealed under a piece of board.

Usually, when there is a shortage of space, they have a shower cubicle rather than a tub, like these 12' x 12' flats:

What was that sitcom or comedy sketch where you had to keep the bathroom door shut to keep water in the (vertical) bath? The guy who built it single handed (after the accident with the circular saw).

that was still moderately common then.

I thought these places still existed I was in one about 12 years ago visiti ng a friend in hackney on the peabody estate, the bath did have a cover so it could be used as a table, but it was far enough away from the sink and p lug sockets so you couldn't stand in the bath and touch a socket. Thois was how the places were built at the time for widows and families tha t had lost the husband in WWI & WWII.

Just for cleaners, nurses, resturant workers just the lower forms of life then they can get the train in to central london or even direct from the EU , as these people don't really deserve to have a family or any form of soci al life I guess.

No I would imagine a wall would need to be between them. Brian

Sounds like Kenny Everett or Rick Somebody who was in Blackadder once
