It's World Toilet Day!

Did you know that today the 19th November is World Toilet Day? It was declared so by 17 Toilet Associations around the world in 2001. It's good to know that someone cares :)

I once formed purely out of fun, a Toilet Girls Club during primary school. Unfortunately it never took off and all two and a half members (the half member was under probation) disbanded after a couple of months. We never did anything really, unlike these 17 Toilet Associations that supports more equality (more toilets for women, the disabled and mothers with babies), cleaner toilets and more toilets for the less fortunate. They discuss these issues plus other related issues such as sanitation, toilet aerodyamics, water saving initiatives in their annual World Toilet Summit.

Until today, I never really thought that much about toilets. Not enough to be a member of the national toilet association and to be excited about attending the annual Toilet Summit. But this really caught my attention - a tru blu gold toilet! It's a genuine gold toilet in a gold shop in Hong Kong.



p/s: There's no point and proper ending to this blog post. The quality of this post is indicative of how much manure I've been copping at work.
p/s2: Now, how did they get such a good photo of the bowl when explicitly mentioned no photos allowed?
