There's a lot of 'toilet humour' on this thread. |

I am always telling my missis NOT to put "Plenty" kitchen towels, and/or cotton buds down the loo..........a friend of ours had "backing up" problems, rodded her pipes, and the next one along but no improvement, eventually got the professionals in, it was three manholes further along..........two pairs of Kelvin Klein underpants...... |

Read this, it is true. My wife and I went to one of the Greek islands a few years ago and rented a small apartment. The manager lived in the next flat. Well, when we looked in the toilet, there was a bin full of someone elses used toilet paper. We told the manager, who was slicing beans outside his flat. He went in and picked the paper out WITH HIS BARE HANDS, and then went back to cutting up his beans without washing his hands. I hope he enjoyed his dinner. |

we were in Leningrad for a major meeting in 1975 ............ the toilets in the main conference hall all had a box or basket next to the toilet for used toilet paper. |

OH's mother used to tell the story of going on a coach tour in the Alps back in the 70s. There was a stop at the top of one of the very high famous passes, a place to get refreshments and toilets ........... which actually were huts off to the side. |
