Building chairman John Hann was on a mission to collect quotes for one when he strolled into Jock’s Hire.
“I was getting quotes for a new building for the Men’s Shed. The Land’s Department granted us a space on the southern end of the showground for a new building so I was in the process of inquiring,” he said.
The idea was for John to have a chat with Todd Mitchell about a new building, when the subject of portaloos arose. “I thought, why not ask him if he has any old ones he doesn’t use so that we don’t have to sneak around the back of the building and hope no ones looking.
“And he said ‘yep, go out the back and choose one’. It was such a kind thing to do.”
The showground toilet block is situated a good 50 metres away from the shed.
Older members of the shed often find the walk difficult and opt for a tree instead. “We just want to give a big shout out to Todd and thank him.”
