What a cutie! Thanks.

AND YOU THOUGHT YOUR PLACE WAS CRAPPY: Property developers in London,
England, always on the lookout for spots to build homes, have decided
to refurbish a 100-year-old public toilet into a housing unit. The
four-by-four-meter (13-by-13-foot) building will be expanded to two
storeys, and should fetch about 135,000 pounds (US$200,000), local
brokers say. "I don't think the fact that it was a loo will put people
off," said the developer's spokeswoman. "It has its own front door."
(Reuters) ...Though instead of using a key, you get in by dropping a
penny into the slot.
