Anyone here old enough to remember having an outside outhouse?

West Coast of Tasmania, 1960's.
Our toilet was outside. Not very pleasant getting up in the middle of the night, pouring with rain, very cold.
There was a Nightsoil collector who would come around once a week to take away the dunny can and replace it with another one.
There were plenty of stories of the dunny can bottom giving way as it has hefted onto the shoulder of the "Dunnyman"

Grew up with one. In fact, my first porn was the bra section of the Sears catalog.

I was about 6 or 7 and when it was winter and cold always waited until the last second possible to go out. Early in the morning I had to go and came down the stairs and slipped my bare feet in my 4 buckle boots and headed out to the outhouse. I tripped myself up in those boots and ended up in a snowbank in my underwear and .....didn't have to go to the outhouse anymore, but I did need to change my underwear.
