I have always wondered why Americans say "I need to go to the bathroom" when they actually mean the toilet! Our bathroom is completely separate from the toilet. <BR/><BR/>Usually the little room which just has the toilet in it is off the laundry and the bathroom will be off the hall. The toilet may have a little washbasin just outside the door.<BR/><BR/>All bathrooms and toilets in Austalia have tiled floors and a drain hole... I'm pretty sure it is illegal to build a house and not do this.<BR/><BR/>The water for washing hands above the toilet is a pretty great idea... but it does seem gross and wrong at first. I think you would get used to it... it does looks pretty clean.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06404247098958587687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7859120836007416823.post-87418683807985584502008-07-31T08:09:00.000-07:002008-07-31T08:09:00.000-07:00Hey Tagisa,I HATE the public bathrooms in Canada a...Hey Tagisa,<BR/><BR/>I HATE the public bathrooms in Canada and the States.

The 1-2" openings on the sides of the doors in the stalls always bothers me.<BR/><BR/>-When Jerry Seinfeld did stand-up in Salt Lake last month, he also made a joke about these openings.<BR/><BR/>Next time I have a chance, I'm going to fold the TP in a public place :) :)<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing!thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02675548196714367352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7859120836007416823.post-481555849631761072008-07-15T08:23:00.000-07:002008-07-15T08:23:00.000-07:00Missfire-yes many are nice but the bad ones are us...Missfire-yes many are nice but the bad ones are usually very bad!!<BR/><BR/>Terryann-I've never seen that!!<BR/><BR/>Ak...we have crocs here and I've never seen them used here.
