Traveling in Thailand you learn that the hotels, malls, etc. of the larger cities have bathroom facilities as modern as anything in the world but that in small-town and rural Thailand things are somewhat different. The traditional toilets are still common: a flat ceramic hole in the floor with two footpads, over which you squat and do your thing. Some of the larger ones have rows of stalls, walls but no doors, with a slow-flowing trough of water flowing by the front of each ceramic fixture. The whole place is built at a slight tilt so the water does actually run, albeit quite slowly. Thais use the left-hand method, rinsing in the trough. Always best to be in a stall as far upstream as possible. You flush with a small pitcher of water scooped from the trough.

A concession to the farang who visit: no toilet paper is supplied but they assume you bring your own (you only forget once). They supply a small container for used paper.

Chanel #5, it is not…

There is a former travelling professor of German and English who taught in various cities in China who described some of the toilets in China and some of them sound like those in the rural areas of Thailand. The man lives in the Villages.

I suppose you have a derrière instead of a buttocks?

Corn cob is the best. Two reds and one white.

Thank you, good information.

I agree Sam’s is the best anywhere around but also it has 4 1/2 inch rolls where everybody else are 4 1/4 and 4 inch rolls
