Meanwhile I've recently read a interview with an oncologist - an activist for some sort of a colon cancer (and related diseases) awareness program - who bemoaned the fact that 'shelf' toilets are becoming less and less popular in Poland. Apparently something as simple as noticing that your 'average' poop has changed might save your life.
Mind you, I have the 'western', if you like, type of toilet installed at home, but can definitely I see his point, back from when I was going through a CJD/cancer scare.
It is illegal to install these toilets in the UK.
Seriously? Why?
