Warning to train passengers
-----------------------------
" Don't use the W.C. whilst the train is standing in the Station.
If you've got to go, then you've got to go
Before you reach your destination.
You'll be fined 5 quid if you lift the lid
And be put upon probation.
So don't use the W.C. whilst the train is standing in the Station ! "
The above musical ditty is from the BBC Television documentary "
Upon the Throne " made in 1984 on the subject of toilet technology
and development dating from the Roman occupation of Britain to the
modern day, coin-operated, fully automatic, SuperLoos of London.

Notes:
-----
1. Dux is a common brand of toilet in N.Z.
2. Kitty's picture is by Ed Savage
3. Because of the endless designs of toilet roll holders
this is omitted from the picture to avoid prejudice.
