Bishop Hill is not a bishop. He's not actually called Hill either. He is an Englishman who lives in rural Scotland.

Great cludges I have known

DateJul 10, 2007

Amit Varma at India Uncut is calling for entries for his competition to find the worlds' finest public conveniences. My suggestion is the gothic fantasy of the public dunny at Rothesay on the Isle of Bute. A true treat for your todger.

I don't see why not - the only criterion appears to be that they are public. (If it's any bog at all, then the gents in the House of Lords are something to behold too).

Why not send it to Amit Varma and see what he thinks.
