Do people spend too much time in the Dunny...

...relieving themselves, reading newspapers/magazines, writing poetry, knitting, painting, doing crosswords, or other things ?

what is with men who take a newspaper to the dunny with them?

how is it a pleasant environment to read?

 

why would you not just go in there, do what ya gotta do with no distractions and get outta there asap?

really is the armchair not a more pleasant reading environment??

My son does, whenever we're about to go anywhere he suddenly needs to go....drives me nuts. We all have to sit and wait for him, a bit like that ad where the woman is getting ready to go out and the husband passes the time by filling and painting the walls!

They (the men) are hiding in there..can read something uninterrupted.
If sitting in the lounge, lounging, they may be asked by their better half to do some work around the place instead of sitting on their butt all afternoon.

Did reading whilst on the loo begin when cut newspaper squares nailed to the wall were the "wipes"?

 

My ex used to sit for quite a while whilst completing the cryptic.  Apparently, he had problems due to not being able to go when nature called whilst he was on duty.  He used to say he was "bogged" down with work.Smiley Happy

 

My younger son copied his father by sitting there.  No paper to contemplate.  But a poster of the times-tables on the opposite wall, ensured he learnt them without thinking he was doing "school work".
