another stupid idea from Labor...., page-43

We don't have details of this thought bubble.

My first house was derelict and not inhabited.

It didn't have a kitchen or toilet (a tin in an outhouse) - oh Phenyle.
I paid the 1900 price and spent a couple of months putting in a sink
and handbasin; then a door and window for a bedroom.

Dug the huge hole and drains for the septic with a spade
as couldn't afford an excavator.

My own children all wanted a top house in a preferred location,
before settling with reality.
