When in Ireland in the early 70's my dad took a picture of the commode as it
bore the label "Royal Doulton". He was using an SP500, just to keep it in
the Pentax context. I have that transparency here someplace.

Don't think I'd have taken a chance on being discovered taking a photo of

In parts of the US, toilets and
latrines are called "crappers", allegedly in honor of their
inventor, Thomas Crapper.
I frankly doubted this was the reason, until I came across
this hardware in the gents' of a London pub:

Whadya know! Still a going concern, too, apparently.
