Rest room story

[Ron and Lorene Shiflet]

Hi David,
    I lived 'down unda' from 85-87.  I lived in NSW and got as far south as 
Eden, Cooma and Jindabyne and drank water from the Snowy River.  Good to 
hear from you mate.

    Since we're on the subject of the dunny (or the loo), people from the US 
would write to me and ask if the water going down the toilet would swirl 
backwards due to reverse polarity in the southern hemisphere.  I never could 
answer the question as the toilets down under didn't swirl, they deluged 
from the back and you'd better be off the seat if you didn't want a wet 
backside.

    By the way folks, in Australia, the toilet is loated in a separate room 
from the bathing facilities so you had to ask, may I use your toilet instead 
of may I use your bathroom.  It seemed a bit frank at the time.

tata
Ron
