mobile, toilet... what?
September 28th 2005
Well, today we are waiting for the weather to change to leave Israel and head to Alexandria, Egypt. The day started out as a day of chores and tasks on the Anna. That was until the great faulty flush incident of 2005.
I headed purposefully through the windy streets of Jaffa to the local
hostel where I hoped to pick up email on their wireless connection.. While I was there I also had to use their facilities. So off I went, unaware of the drastic turn of events that was about to occur.
In the loo I placed my mobile carefully and safely on the back of the
flush. When I pulled the flush handle down, some sort of mechanism in the cistern sprung unexpectedly upwards knocking off the lid of the cistern.At this moment my mobile flew spectacularly through the air and landed right in the centre of the toilet bowl. The phone disappeared past the U bend and beyond.
So, there I stood mobile less in front of that fateful porcelain bowl Before breaking into hysterical laughter.
Note: Although I do carry my mobile with me to the lavatory, unfortunately the same cannot be said for a digital camera. Thanks to the Scientific and Award Winning website Toilets of the World for supplying the photo here. This particular example is a seat less Greek offering. (Where would we be without the Internet eh!)
