Oh dear. Please allow me to recall the tale told by an old shipbuilder from the Govan Shipyard in Scotland.
They had similar lavatory arrangements to those described above but, being engineering types they rigged it up so that it was tilted at a slight angle and constant running water was used to sluice peoples' waste away.
The guy that rigged all this up would occasionally stand at the end where the channel began, attach oily rags to a model boat and then set it all alight.
The boat would then serenely drift its way down the channel with the rags blazing away merrily -- with the inevitable affect on the bums above.
Our hero would chuckle away merrily as people rushed out of the latrine in great disarray!
Er, sorry, off topic. Great to see you back Fred!
