What is it with British hotels not having a phone in the loo?

[Spacecadet]

Let's say there was a phone in the toilet, your going to ask some naive young receptionist to deliver a newspaper to you while sat on the throne while your taking a dump??

Not sure I'll be having a dump whilst phoning her... but then I'm in a hotel room, why do I need to be sat on the toilet??

Always wise to dump your bowels first, what if she brings her strap-on!

why would you want to talk to anyone while you're on the toilet? Are you an animal?

Ok, it's like this...

You're having a shave.

The phone rings...

It's reception...

"Mr Churchill, your car has arrived!"

"Thank you Miss Moneypenny, I'll be down shortly!"

2 things that animals generally don't do (without training)

1. Talk
2. Use the toilet

So talking whilst on the toilet is about as far from animal behaviour as you can get!

Sitting on the throne during my last visit to the UK, I realised I didn't have a newspaper, so I wanted to phone reception and order a copy of the Times.

But to my shock and discombobulation; no phone!

do you have a phone in the bogs at home ?

do you have a phone in the bogs at home ?

No, we have a person who does the cleaning and puts a selection of journals in a conveniently placed rack next to the throne.

I'm terribly sorry but hoh else would one call the butlah to wipe one's posterior? Aside from pulling the butler chain, that is.

How on earth do you slow poo'ers manage in turd world countries like France where you have to squat?
