Have a lovely weekend!

On my mind today is the art work of Kirsten Sparenborg who owns Turn of the Centuries.

Her choice of colours are so gentle, calm and lovely.

Having had the experience of answering nature’s calls on 3 different non-flushable ‘bowls’, my memories of each of those occasion have not faded but has ‘nurtured’ an affection for portable toilet designs. If you think you can go on, I’m telling my experiences right below.

Once upon a time…
…on Mount Ophir in Johor, Malaysia, our camp toilet was a hole dug out from the ground. A tent was also erected for privacy.

…on Pulau Ubin island in Singapore, where toilet for campers like us was a rectangular container with all its contents submerged in a yellowish fluid. One would have to squat along the side of the container.

…during a toilet break along a road on the outskirts of Seoul in South Korea, the restroom looked just like any regular restroom until you look down (and you will!) to see that everything is resting in a bucket below.

Composting is what I hope will be widely promoted and strongly supported here in Singapore. Locally there’s GreenBack, a company that sells Can-O-Worms and there’s another small company called Etam Holdings that has created the Eco-Pot, which is perfect for apartment dwellers who have no gardens, no balconies and are squeamish about worms.

Something new has recently arrived at one of the largest malls on our island – an Automated External Defibrillator (AED).

Hub says the glass isn’t difficult to break…one can use shoes or just bare hands, during an emergency.
