    My wife put a notice up for myself and my sons, if you sprinkle when you tinkle, be a sweetie and clean the seatie.
    Even if we find the light it will be surround by shadow.

    When I was a little girl I do remember wondering -and indeed asking my Mum -why a 'gentleman' would be wearing a dress.....

    One of the many joys of en-suite bathrooms, its your bathroom, your mess and your problem if you sprinkle on the seat. Exactly why the two males in our house each have their own en-suite and the rest of us just steer clear of them!

    This thread has made me wonder who invented the toilet seat and why? I've had a look on the web but have nothing to go on.

    I did find this though:

    TOILET PAPER
    Joseph Gayetty invented toilet paper in 1857. His new toilet paper was composed of flat sheets. Before Gayetty's invention, people tore pages out of mail order catalogs - before catalogs were common, leaves were used.

    Unfortunately, Gayetty's invention failed. Walter Alcock (of Great Britain) later developed toilet paper on a roll ( instead of in flat sheets). Again, the invention failed.

    In 1867, Thomas, Edward and Clarence Scott (brothers from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA) were successful at marketing toilet paper that consisted of a small roll of perforated paper . They sold their new toilet paper from a push cart - this was the beginning of the Scott Paper Company

    So they didn't actually come up with the idea of toilet paper themselves?

    Sounds like they 'ripped off' someone elses Idea.
