The Home
Ever feel a bit grumbly about your house? It’s not big enough. It’s not shiny and cool, it doesn’t have a games room, the lights aren’t voice-activated and there are no robot butlers at all!
Well stop whining, you Whiny Whinemitten from the planet Whineplop-Z.
If you think you’ve got it bad, spare a thought for the ancient Greeks – they had no glass in their windows, poor people lived in houses made of baked MuD and there
were exactly ZErO ToIlEtS – even for the super-rich!
That’s right, you had to PoO in a PoT. Welcome to ancient Greece!
FANCY THAT!
One vase painting shows a little boy sitting in a tall potty which also seems to double as a high chair. Sounds great – no need to leave the table when you need to go to the toilet! Just think of the time you´d save.
