I am mightily ashamed because:
1.
I am definitely too old
for toilet humour.
2.
I am supposed to be too young
to be excited by a mahogany loo seat.
3.
There was a queue of literary ladies
waiting very patiently
while I took a photograph
of the ceramic chain pull.
It is all quite unforgivable.
*****
Please come back tomorrow,
we will put this behind us
and discuss in an age-appropriate way
how I met Mr & Mrs Cornflower
at the Bloomsbury lit-fest that was
the Slightly Foxed Readers' Day.

Strangely, this does not surprise me.
ReplyDeleteOh....I am so giggling! : ))
ReplyDeleteTut, tut Mrs M - control yourself.
ReplyDeleteIt was so lovely to meet you, and here's to next year's event!
ReplyDeleteIs that is the comparative what is the superlative ? Just asking
ReplyDeleteNo one is ever too old for toilet humour. I loved Despicable Me 2 for all the completely childish humour. My daughter only has to say "bottom" like a Minion to have me giggling like a 5 year old......
ReplyDeleteI worked with a girl with the surname Crapper. And yes she was related to the great man himself.
ReplyDeleteMy dad used to sing a lovely song about it: "A gentleman dapper came out of the crapper and these are the words that he said..."
ReplyDeleteThere is no age limit for toilet humour. Thank you for taking the photographs, the acoutréments are beautiful.
