We have these "Esssex Girls" type in Australia also. Not sure where they get the"drop toilet" from, as I have never seen any toilet that goes in any other direction!

Aussie tourist's hilarious toilet request while visiting China
https://au.news.yahoo.com/aussie-touris ... 03499.html
Samantha Harrison was in Beijing with a friend when they realised they didn't know how to 'squat properly' to use the toilet.
Travelling to a new country can present many learning curves — but Aussie woman Samantha Harrison didn't expect to be shown how to use a toilet during her recent trip overseas.
The business owner from Queensland flew to China with a group last week, and while enjoying lunch in Beijing, found herself engaged in a "tutorial" on how best to use the nation's squat toilets, which are commonly found in many parts of Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.
Harrison detailed the hilarious encounter to Yahoo News Australia from abroad, admitting the whole thing was "so funny" and "wholesome". She was with her friend using the bathroom at a restaurant when they realised "we don't know how to do it properly" without "getting backsplash".
Enough space wasted, read it at the link to see just how many other dill brains there are in this world!

Mussolini no longer honorary citizen of Ustica
The Sicilian island of Ustica on Friday stripped Benito Mussolini of the honorary citizenship of the island he was granted during his 20-year rule in Italy.
As well as the late Fascist dictator, also several Fascist 'gerarchi' or high officials were stripped of the honour.

Extreme heat bends railway tracks

Extremely hot weather warped rails in the southern province of Nakhon Si Thammarat, and it took railway workers about an hour to cool them down to make the tracks usable again, the State Railway of Thailand (SRT) said on Wednesday.
The rail deformation was spotted between the Ron Phi Bun and Khao Chum Thong stations in Ron Phi Bun district of Nakhon Si Thammarat at 2.20pm on Tuesday, said Ekarat Sri-arayanpong, chief of the SRT governor's office.
Extremely hot weather at the time caused expansion and stress on rails and sleepers on a section of the rail line and the tracks were bent out of shape, he said.
SRT employees and rescue workers treated the bent tracks and hot concrete sleepers with cold water and ice and the tracks returned to their normal state in about an hour, Mr Ekarat said.
