    I've been Money Tipped!
    I thought only the lower classes would feel the need to refer to bodily functions. You surprise me! Peasant!

    Have a nice night at the collllld iiiiccccy coooolllllld bridge ... unable to wee!

    Happy New Year!

    N'ah, its th lower middles who feel the need to avoid them. ''Toilet'' was a banned word in my house. Posh grandmother wrote a note to one of my schools demanding they stopr teaching it and take down the signs on the door. Saying it got you a spanking, but you culd say almost any other word for the loo....so long as it wasnt a middle class nicity. a spade is a spade for the lower classes, move up (jumping a bit) and a !!!!!! is a !!!!!!. I was amazed the first time I heard people using euphamisms as a command to their dog...we just tell the dogs to go outside and wee.:confused:

    thing is, it's proven women can hold it in more than men

    when men have to go, they go. women have a bit more dignity (i hope)

    I learnt that from a book that was published, called something like "Non U", which advised people that it's a lavatory, not a toilet ... and other choice tidbits that would help you blend in if you ever met posh folks :)

    And now, here, I finally have :)
