Ceiling Giving Way

Today the ceiling of the toilet in my house gave way and a huge chunk of concrete fell to the ground all of a sudden. I went to take a look and realised the metal pilings and the concrete have been corroded, most probably due to the high moisture. Luckily no one was in the toilet at that moment.

My dad took a pail while I got myself a screwdriver and started prying out more of the loose concrete to make sure they are out of harm's way. After near an hour of falling debris and with my shirt drenched in sweat, a large part of the toilet's ceiling was gone and the inner metal pilings were all clearly visible. Seems like I've got to give the town council a ring first thing Monday morning.
