At night i thought that there could be a skeleton sitting on the loo. I would stand well back as i gingerly opened the loo door and would cautiously approach the toilet, only turning round at the last minute and sitting down with my eyes screwed up. I would then have to go into the bathroom to wash my hands, avoiding the bath as there could be a skeleton lying in there too. I still hate going to the loo at night at my parents house!
