Rate the dodgy dunny:

(FYI this was taken about chest height. Yes, the top of my head was touching the roof, no I'm not particularly tall.)

Normally 2/10

When I NEED to go...8/10

Consequences be damned...I'm dropping that deuce

3/5. I've shat in dunnies where you go "oh yeah this looks clean enough". Open the lid and swarms of flies come barrelling out. Too late I'm ready to lay.

I'm still traumatised from primary school, so I do not shit in public toilets unless it's a very dire situation (which, touch wood, hasn't happened to me yet). Probably wouldn't shit in these dunnies though, I find it unnerving enough having insects crawl up my leg while taking a piss

I can smell this image ๐Ÿคข damp dark dank piss'n'shit.

.5/10 lol

Surprisingly, they didn't actually smell bad. They smelt dusty, and I think cobwebs went up my nose, which don't smell the best. But as far as dunnies go, they were pretty smelless

that looks not too bad. 5/10 for country town toilets

do the dunnies have lids?

are there porcelain urinals or is there a concrete trough?

Does it have a roof?

Is there are a kangaroo inside? ( cos the last country town loo I went to ( port campbell) had a resident kangaroo in the ladies )

Dunnies do have lids - no flies though. But lots of cobwebs, as well as several cockroaches and assorted other insects. One tried to crawl up my leg.

No urinals, just a simple porcelain flushing toilet in each genders toilet. Has a roof, that wavey looking tin type roof.

A hinge fell off when I closed the door and I almost got stuck in there. Had to lift the door up whole punching the lock to make it open.

No kangaroo, only insects. But no soap, and it had one of the slow flow rate taps that's on the very side of the metal basin so you can't wash your hands without touching the basin. Also lots of dust and dirt on the floor
