THE MAN WHO MOVED INTO A FLAT

One day it was decided that Philip Cucumber should be moved to a sheltered flat – Rolling Pin Lodge because he would be better off. He was taken to see his flat and what a shock he got for it was only four foot wide.
“I can’t live there its too small, no bigger than a large box.
“But said Dispra Domat, Philip Cucumber’s carer, its all that you can have, don’t forget that this flat complex accommodates up to 2000 people”.


Eventually Philip Cucumber moved in. He had to get rid of all his possessions, clothes, books, the lot. Because the clothes he was wearing were the only clothes he had he had to walk around naked in his flat because being no bigger than a box he had no room to put any clothes.
For meals he had to go to the dining room in the flat complex, and what a size, only two feet wide, and he had to pay £50 for a lunch, and when he ran out of money he had to go without food for six weeks. Craving with hunger he started to eat his flat. The carers caught him and ordered the police to section him at the local mental hospital. The bed he slept in turned out to be another human being- a man sleeping on top of another man, using him as a bed.
The conditions here were dreadful, toilets with bowls that had no sides to them and a shower that spewed dead insects, imagine taking a shower and instead of water, a load of dead insects come out and pelt you as you’re taking the shower. Not only that, you had to eat your meals on top of another man’s head and wear trousers that have come from the sewer. If you complained you would have a candle stuck in your ear and lit causing the ear to drop off.
At this institution patients had to take their baths in filthy water loaded with rotting meat.
The methods in which the place was run were unusual. One such case was the trouser toilet, a pair of trousers being used as a toilet.


One day at the institution shown above a man was made to iron his chest and burnt a hole, exposing his heart. Not only that that the heart swelled up to the size of a London bus and burst.
The patient died.
