Water Closet(Toilet)

In the days when you couldn't count on a public toilet facility, an English woman was planning a trip to India. She was registered to stay in a small guest house owned by the local schoolmaster. She was concerned as to whether the guest house contained a WC. In England,as you know, a bathroom is commonly called a WC which stands for"Water Closet". She wrote to the schoolmaster inquiring of the facilities aboutthe WC.

The school master, not fluent in English, asked the local priest ifheknew the meaning of WC. To
gether they pondered possible meanings of the letters and concluded that the lady wanted to know if there was a" Wayside Chapel " (Place where Celebrations are done especiallylike abeautiful garden) near the house . . . a bathroom never entered their minds.

So the schoolmaster wrote the following reply:
Dear Madam,
I take great pleasure in informing you that the WC is located 9milesfrom the house. It is located in the middle of a grove of pine trees, surrounded by lovely grounds. It is capable of holding 229 people and is open on Sundays and Thursdays. As there are many people expected in the summer months, I suggest you arrive early. There is, however, plenty of standing room. This is an unfortunate situation especially if you are inthe habit of going regularly. It may be of some interest to youthat my daughter was married in the WC as it was there that she met her husband.It was a wonderful event. There were 10 people in every seat. It was wonderful to see the expressions on their faces. We can take photos in different angle.

My wife, sadly, has been ill and unable to go recently. It has beenalmost a year since she went last, which pains her greatly.You will be pleased to know that many people bring their lunch and makea day of it. Others prefer to wait till the last minute and arrive just in time. I would recommend Your Lady ship plan to go on a Thursday asthere is an organ accompaniment.

The acoustics are excellent and eventhe most delicate sounds can be heard every where.The newest addition is a bell which rings every time a personenters. We are holding a bazaar to provide plush seats for all since many feelitis long needed. I look forward to escorting you there myself and seating you in a place where you can be seen by all.

With deepest regards,
The Schoolmaster
