Royal Society of Arts: twinned toilets
This toilet (in Royal Society of Arts, John Adam Street, London) is twinned with Latrine No 600 (Burundi)
Spotted in the RSA building during the Sydney Loire tasting on Thursday 20th January.
My father, a middle child of eight children, lived in a house in the 1930's which had a "twinned toilet". It was shared toilet with the next door neighbours and at the top of the garden. It comprised a double thunderbox, side-by-side !! I guess that's not quite the same thing. LOL !!
But yes, of course !
ReplyDeleteYou know how the French call a dick, Jim: a “biroute”. Therefore, you need twin toilets.
