The Brits’ idea of “in the toilet” is MUCH different than ours....

Seems appropriate. Were any of the pages torn out?

George Costanza couldn’t return his book after he took it in the toilet...

Ahem! Don’t you guys ever have a err wee room with just a toilet in it, usually located downstairs?

Besides, surely everyone knows that the proper UK term is “the Bog”.

No. It would be nice if we did, though.

I’d forgotten about “The Bog.” Good homely term.
