I'd love to get someone washing there, to portrait and to talk; but  
nowadays nobody uses these things to wash. Washing machines and  
running water in every house have sent those habits to forgiveness  
and those places alone.

In fact there are more chances (10000/1) to shoot young people  
drinking there than anything related to its intended use :-/

Times changes and that way of life was vanished a few decades ago,  
only traces remain.
