The Area
Here you will find table, chairs, and (obviously) toilet
facilities. There is a small area for children to play with tracks
into the bushes to explore and stretch your legs. This Concrete
Crappa and surrounding park was placed here by the local Apex club
and named after Thomas Crapper for his contribution to the toilet
industry.
From Wikipedia:
Thomas Crapper (baptised 28 September 1836; died 27 January
1910) was a plumber who founded Thomas Crapper & Co. in London.
Contrary to widespread misconceptions, Crapper did not invent the
flush toilet. He did, however, do much to increase the popularity
of the toilet, and developed some important related inventions,
such as the ballcock.
Minnipa is the Western Gateway to the Gawler Ranges (Visit Link),
(Visit
Link), with Kimba boasting the Eastern entrance. This is best
explored with a high-clearance 4wd. From here, head across the
highway into town and take the first turn left.
The Cache
There is room for small swaps. Please trade with something
blue or related to loos or
poos - without getting gross!
I have a friend who colour codes cleaning cloths using
blue for loos, pink for sinks, and green
for general.
Original contents of the blue container
included blue pen, blue log book, tissues with a blue wrapper (in case you run out of toilet paper),
some carrot seeds (tried to put in something related to mushrooms
– because they are supposedly fed on ---- and kept in the
dark – but couldn’t find anything that fitted, and
carrots need fertiliser too), and a small blue bird. There is also a FTF prize beneath (in the
form of a signed, blue poopa scooper).
Please make sure container is closed, horizontal and hidden from
view.
Geomum grew up in the area (and geodad 40km away), and with
parents living nearby, our mum will check on it for any maintenance
issues.
