That is a very common phrase in England, where most of the buildings are brick built, when we first moved down to Manchester from Scotland, we had a brick built outside loo!! You had to cross the 'back yard' to just a loo with a horrible wooden seat which had a crack in it so you got your bum pinched when you got up...ouch!! We used to have newspaper cut up in squares threaded on string......it was awful, I bet there were alot of bottoms with tattoos from the print!! In some areas you would have one brick sh1t house for a row of houses...anybody watch 'Coronation Street'??? Well if you do thats the type of terraced housing I am meaning

:shock: :( :-) :shock:
