Crapper's

I've never taken photos in a Ladies before
But the reproduction cistern made me think,
If I publish a picture labelled 'Crappers'
Any viewing it can hardly raise a stink:

It's a genuine Victorian facsimile.
Those seeing it should really cheer and clap,
As the surname of the maker is the root of a word,
And inspiration for this poem, which is crap (!)

This is the beginning of a few days' of backblips as I couldn't get online while I was away. Took this pic at Jamie's Italian restaurant in Brum, where I dined with fellow children's poets. What fun, eh!
