That always used to amuse me no end when American visitors asked for directions to the toilet when I worked in Customer Services at a shopping centre!! Asking for the closet, or rest room, or WC, or bathroom, or conveniences!! It always sounded so posh!!
For me a bathroom has a bath in it and a toilet has a toilet in it!! I do love the differences in our language!!
well we say toliet sometimes too...
at least i do...
Hurrah!! We also use, loo, bog, lav, pisser, and various other slang words but mostly toilet...

I'm aware of all the scatalogical humor, though. Some of that is even more elegant than American scat though.
Speaking of which.. Stuart is giggling over.. midgets with perfume in a toilet????!!!!
True, we do vulgar with a certain style and finesse....

Stuie.. Now, you have MORE smilies..
but they are all doing the same bob-up-and-down dance. They have been doing it for 24 hours now, like a marathon.
MY smilies are COOL and wearing sunglasses, waving an original balloon and they are high on their more complex dance step performance!!
