HELP NEEDED: Twin Toilets Update 1


The original twin toilets are all the bog-rage, and you can see them here.

Meanwhile, Karl sends news,

'Surprisingly, this is not peculiar to the Arndale.'

along with this cracking picture of adjacent bogs:

found at Toilets Around The World, top-class bog watchers, hosted by Bioquest: the company with the cheap as chips website.

These are in Topola, map of which I found here.

It's like they're really saying: here's the map, you go fucking find it.

The Bog-Watchers failed to provide any cultural references that help us put the pot in it's proper context. Allow me to have a go:

This dual-loader, while presenting a better facility than the conveniences of most Manchester cafés, is still an A-class shit-tip.

The rightmost, presents not only the dilema of co-dumping, but a seatless rim for bottom comfort. Cold as fuck, the temptation to perch above the rim would be great, and you could easily imagine a hand slipping on to a neighbourly-knee.

The left-hand khazi is a tidier affair, but yet no doubt smells of piss and shit.

Between the bowls, a chair is placed for the comfort of third friend, if you simply cannot be apart.

He or She is invited to shit on the floor and a toilet roll has been provided for this purpose.

Overall? A toilet that would be fairly acceptable without the spur of diarrhoea, were if not for the possiblity that someone may sit down next to you.

MODERN USAGE: James Blunt

MODERN USAGE: Re-tox
MODERN USAGE: If it wasn't for nuclear weapons...
MODERN USAGE: Like a politician fighting for justice...

Here are the
the most extraordinary toilets in the world
