I prefer the half-doll, half-toilet roll (forming the hoop of the skirt) little arrangements you used to see on the back of toilets in certain counties I have known.

Are you going to Wash? I should hope so!!! I love it when you are visiting someone's house and you think they really have it going on and then you visit their "facilities" and they have their toilet plunger proudly displayed next to the porceline bowl. Even worse is when they use it to hold those extra rolls of toilet paper!!! Though creative, it does give me the willies knowing that it is used that often--- it tells you a little bit about what they've been eating!!! AB What about Washroom? Are you going to Wash?
