We've GOT to start saving some water, folks!

A flush of toilets?
I reckon the feller knowed what he was a doin', but I think it's gonna get awful cramped after ever'body's had a few beers.
Holy @#$%!
What would SWMBO think of the one in the corner?
I feel flushed.
I've heard of taking a **** , but never heard of anyone taking a ****per. (Heard in the currently empty Men's Room.)
Well,if it was here DownUnder that'd make a typical Dave 'n' Mabel joke.
Probably even make a short skit about it.
The mind boggles.
OK, we need to know more about the Dave 'n' Mabel couple. Maybe they are like the Ole and Lena jokes from Minnesota. There are a couple million of those stories.
Examples please.
probably should be in another area but here goes
first off - from the Web - Great Australian Stories
DAD, DAVE AND MABEL
Perhaps the best-known forms of Australian yokel lore are the Dad and Dave yarns.
Probably an original literary invention of Australian author Û÷Steele RuddÛª (Arthur Hoey Davis, 1868-1935), Dad, Mum and their foolish son, Dave, first appeared in the Bulletin magazine in 1895. Four years later the sketches appeared in book form under the title On Our Selection, with various subsequent editions and sequels.
The books were best sellers, also having stage, film and radio adaptations, and appear to have inspired the numerous humorous folktales and jokes told about Dad and Dave.
These concentrate on portraying Dad, Dave and the family as country hicks.
as to the jokes etc... Made me think of them in pictures above.
Dave and Mabel open a bed and breakfast.
The conditions are pretty rough and ready but they eventually get a couple from the city to stay the night.
When they arrive they complain that there is no toilet.
Dave reassures them that this is just the way things are in the bush and provides them with a bucket if they need to relieve themselves during the night.
another...
Mum sends Dave off to the market to buy a few things and Mabel tags along as usual.
After investing in a new bucket, a straw broom, a couple of live chickens and a poddy calf, Dave is struggling home, with the calf baulking and the chickens flapping and the bucket clanking - all in different directions.
As they pass through a bit of bush Mabel says, "Aw gee, Dave, I'm scared!"
Dave yanks the calf and recovers a chicken and says, "Yeah! What of, Mabel?"
"Aw gee, you might take advantage of me in this lonely bush!" says Mabel.
"Come off it, Mabel," says Dave, grabbing the bucket. "Look how busy I am with this lot!"
Quick as a flash, Mabel says, "But couldn't you put the chickens down on the ground with the bucket on top of them, and push the broom into the ground and tie the calf to it?"

By observing that all the Johns were congregating on the corner, it was clear that the Ladies were not working tonight. Some of the Johns had already blown their lid.

I here they just got all new confessionals installed.
Hey you, in the back there. Take your hat off, we're in church!
