I'm aware that this blog was started to keep everyone
informed of my training inflate my ego, and I try to mostly limit it to
training. BUT on my recent road trip around France (another post explaining the
trip is pending) I noticed that the country was still in the dark ages.
Yes I know it is classed as a first world nation, and
yes I know it is the home of fine wine, I even accept it possesses unmistakably beautiful
countryside but it is the lacking of one commodity that reveals its true state.
The toilet seat.
Why France have you not adopted this wonderful
invention? It is comfortable AND practical. You nearly have it right. In some
places you actually have a toilet. Some even have the fixtures holes. What has
the toilet seat done to deserve its condemnation to the scrap heap?
A selection of the toilets we experienced |
Lets not be mistaken, I understand that the toilet has
a primary function, but it can be so much more! Commonly It is a place from
which builders delve into the world of the Daily Sport, it's also the place
where novels are read, online banking performed, even TV watched. I also have a
friend who conducts telephone calls whilst on the throne.
I even paid to use this beauty! |
These activities cannot be done when squatting over a
hole in the ground, or hovering over a toilet base. They need seats. Even
Glastonbury Festival toilets have seats!
France, enter this century. Embrace the toilet seat!
