I thought this was an amusing way to account for piss on the floor, however I think it was probably the truth given the exposed position of the pub and outside wall the toilets were on.

What a cock-up! The sign writer needs a stiff talking to.Originally Posted by hondo

I know the French aren't known fo their sense of humour - they still consider Benny Hill
to be cutting edge comedy. But this sign, seen in a pub-like establishment in the Loire Valley, is a good start, if a little vieux chapeau by London standards.
(My translation:
Method of Use.
A tendency has been noticed for certain people to pee next to or on top of the bowl, and even on the walls. In the public interest, we ask you to follow carefully the following advice:
- If you're too short, ask for the step meant for this purpose instead of bouncing up and down and spraying everywhere .
- If you're too tall, kneel down; that's what the carpet's for.
- If you're proud or pretentious, take a step forward, it's much shorter than [only] you think.
- If you pee to one side, ask for a funnel.
- If you're too fat, ask the waiter to help you.
- And if you can't see it very clearly, ask for a helping hand.
The toilet bowl expresses its grateful thanks!!!
PS: don't steal this notice, ask for a photocopy!)
