Chinese man finds novel use for unwanted loos
A Chinese inventor is using recycled toilets to make school desks.
Loo manufacturer Gao Jianguo thinks he has discovered the ideal way to salvage the unwanted lavatories by turning the cistern lids of the toilets into a portable desk.
Despite some critics slamming the idea, Gao believes it will save toilets that would otherwise have been thrown away.
He explained: "We have lots of toilets that we would otherwise throw away.
"It is wasteful and if we can find a use for them we should. They are brand new and have never been used so there is no hygiene issue."
