A fun write and toilet habits are always suspicious and when in the cubical it is always best to clean before you sit, you never know the habits of the previous occupant! Ha ha ha, you made me smile, love Dolly x

Thanks Dolly, Appreciate you coming by. I got some of these out for one more go. Need to get on with publishing my FIVE books! Poems, Carols, Muses, Little Dog and Rambles. Not sure what I will do with the Rants Raves and Tributes book, particularly related to FS. What do you think? Noticing a few of us are stiff friends on Facebook with Charley lewis, Michael Cahill and Dean Kuch now all deceased, sadly.

Hello Geoff,
This is an unusual poem, yet very humorous. This the first poem I have every read about the cleanliness of the Loo. To be honest, I had to look that word Loo up. Ha ha. This has been a problem for many a lady for years. Keeping the Loo clean is a MUST. I love the elegant photo of the toilet paper you used which is so needed in any bathroom. Your poem is creative and gave me a chuckle. I think is will be a different yet fitting for your book. Very funny. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks, Joyce I am not sure we have met before but I appreciate you coming by. This is a last run for my "Book of Poultry" that many people don't understand its title. All my books are still yet unpublished. Glad you got sorted on the "loo!"

You are welcome.

This has a beautiful picture for an ugly subject. "Give the loo a flush and wipe the seat," has been the battle cry of girls and women for years. And then comes the man who puts the subject into poetry and includes a pretty picture. Bravo for you! Very creative and thank you.

Yeah Robyn I don't know either I mean if you have to put a hand down there to clean it you are gonna hopefully wash your hands afterwards in these times even more important. When I use the public conveniences I always look to see who of the MEN will wash their hands after even just a pee! Lots still don't! Shame! Thanks for coming by. Keep in touch I am on Monthly here now will be here in December not sure when after that.

I'm glad you're hanging around. I won't get to Kate before the end of the year, but maybe after the first? Fingers crossed!

Comment from MelB
Is no one cleaning the bathrooms at the hospital? It does seem at times that anything goes in public restrooms. I've cleaned them in parks, and at offices.

Na Sis Hospital is fine actually I used a toilet today and the seat was wet. I think the flush is a bit over enthusiastic as I noticed when I flushed...all these are to do with my last employment before we retired in 1997. Thanks for the lovely review. I have seen some pretty awful public toilets though I have to admit.

You're welcome. Me too!
Comment from barbara.wilkey
Of of my sons accused his brother of leaving a river on the floor in front of the toilet. It caused some tension between them. LOL I enjoyed reading your poem. Good write.

Comment from Sasha
I got a good laugh out of this one. This is a major problem in Mexico. The plumbing is so old, and the pipes so small that they put up signs begging people not to flush toilet paper... it inevitably plugs up the pipes creating horrific overflows. Sadly, despite the signs being in Spanish, English, French and German, the tourists ignore them causing severe, messy problems for every one. Why can't people follow proper instructions? I got a real kick out of this one. keep up the great work.

Thanks, Sasha. Same problem here with the so called "Flushable wipes" THEY ARE NOT! Also at church and a lot of places in our city precinct of Penrith there is a problem with the sewer and at church there are signs in the toilets NOT to flush these "FLushables" Sigh. Can see a poem coming out of this too hehe. They ran a news item showing the tons of wipes the Water board has to extract from the sewers.
-
Here, toilet paper will stop up the plumbing instantly... flushable wipes are not the only problem.
-
Yeah well years ago I used far too much paper. Afraid of touching my bottom or whatever. Glad I have got over that.
-
Many places no longer put toilet paper into the bathroom which requires the patron to ask for it and they are given just enough to do the job and REMINDED not to flush it down the toilet. It is a real problem here and one that tourists need to take seriously.
-
Yeah Sasha Tourists will not take it seriously if it don't affect them who cares! Sigh! A lot of ignorance around. Cya have to get dressed, brekky then off to hospital again.
