Mandy visited the outhouse this morning to discover it totally and utterly gone - burned to the ground without a trace of the frame, roof, seat remaining. It looks like it was quite an inferno.
One thing I made sure to plan for was a toilet on day one, because needs must, but I didn't think to plan for having a spare toilet. OMG. Disaster!
It's a bit of a puzzle how this happened. We do light a mosquito coil when we use the loo so it seems that might be the cause but I walked past it yesterday afternoon and it seemed fine then, and it was last used yesterday morning so would have had to have been quietly smouldering away for a long time. Judging from the red fired clay inside the hole it looks like there was a good fire going in there, so I guess it's possible it we had a case of spontaneous combustion too.
