And if you'll just come round to the port side sir, you'll find the bath in what I am sure you will agree, is a bright and airy addition to this property.

We bought it specially during our Sydney port call. Just wish we could be there when they install and find out it goes the wrong way.

My mother told me to always clean the toilet after I've had a dump - but not this time

The enemy learns fast, but I can't say too much about the support we get from back home. In fact, many of our weapons are straight from the lav.

Hoskins's idea was put to the test.
The copper plumbing for the long flight was all cleverly hidden; it was to be a simple matter of flush by wire.
