they don't use bog roll

wa-hay, I was waiting for that one!

Maybe a couple of pieces of bog roll...one to get most of the crap off, then use a lota (plastic teapot thingy) filled with water to wash your arse, then another piece to dry yourself off.

Amazing what you learn on this forum, innit?

That's true, and in Pakistan too. The left hand is reserved for arse-wiping and other unhygeinic duties.

What a load of shite


Religious bollocks yet again.

Not having any whimsical crap telling me how to live my life

 

[alecstilleyedye]

religious bollocks? makes sense really, do you really want to eat with the hand you just wiped your arse with, especially if soap and hot water are not readily to hand?

Getting away from the current drift towards slagging of the fuzzy wuzzies....

Here's a tip. If you get your knob out in a newsagents, always have an open bag of crisps to hand.

When you're in the Greek part of Cyprus always remember that the local confectionery is Greek delight, not Turkish delight...

If you are a 'furriner' never ever refer to a Scotsman, Welshman or Irishman as "English"

When in Rome, make sure you do as the Romans.

A customer we hadn't seen for a while comes in and is remarkably thin. (He was over twenty stone but now looked 12 stone). So one of the lads asks him what was his secret for the dramatic change. "Liver cancer" he repiled. You could hear a pin drop 50 miles away.

In India, you eat with the right hand. Only the right hand. Never, ever the left.

If you fall off your bike and break your right hand, are you allowed to eat with your left, or do you have to ask someone else to feed you?





Just wondered.

No idea. I wasn't there long enough to break anything...

Never, ever tell a French person that the reason they have trees along the side of their Routes Nationale is so the German Army can march in the shade.

No matter where you go in the world, never say in (whichever place you come from) we do it this way, and expect people to change!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In a German restaurant it is considered rude to start singing "Two world wars and one world cup".
