The Water Closet

Picture 2 - Water Closet in Bourton-on-the-Water

A flush toilet is a toilet that disposes of human liquid and solid waste, by using water to flush it through a drainpipe to another location for disposal. The sanitary fixture is distinctly different from a urinal, which is designed to handle only liquid waste.
Flushing mechanisms are found more often on sitting-style toilets, but many squat toilets also are made for automated flushing. Modern toilets incorporate an "S", "U", "J", or "P" shaped bend that causes the water in the toilet bowl to collect and act as a seal against sewer gases. Since flush toilets are typically not designed to handle waste on site, their drain pipes must be connected to waste conveyance and waste treatment systems.
A flush toilet may be euphemistically called a lavatory, a bog (UK), a pot (US), a loo, a dunny (AU/NZ), a john, a water closet (abbreviated "W.C."), or simply "toilet".  The other sign that probably also raises an eyebrow to outsiders is as shown below and coincidentally in the same village.  A bog is a bog I say!
This particular sign directing the bladder or bowel troubled is located in Bourton on the Water Bourton-on-the-Water is a village and civil parish in Gloucestershire, England that lies on a wide flat vale within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.  

It is also where I happened across Jackie Charlton the England centre back of football world cup winning fame in 1966 heading into a very English fish and chip shop.  He is the chap in the flat cap just to the left of the red phone box.  Phone boxes come later and as for the fish and chips that particular culinary delight is also a feature in a later blog.
