The Golden State: Where & How to Live, Secure, Visit, Enjoy and Thrive in California

Plumbing Fixtures Of Europe

The Joan of Arc...


Here you have temperature control like that offered to Shadrach and associates in the fiery furnace. Turn it on CHAUD (hot) and it comes out hot. Turn it on FROID (cold) and it comes out
boiling hot. You're steamed like a plum pudding.
But it can reduce you to ashes which, much to the annoyance of the femme du chambre, leaves a ring around the tub.

Indoor Outhouse...


Here we have it, continental country-house style. Even in some chateaux, you must be in the know. Carry no lantern in the nocturnal hours and keep the windows closed, your inclination to the contrary notwithstanding. Bats, bees, and bugs are very partial to this type of accommodation.

The Katzenjammer


This type of monkey cage gives the imprisoned victim unlimited opportunities for a ivorkout in a limited area. If you need to be needled this is your dish. Make free with the valve handles and have good clean fun. A fair measure of the frustrated downpour and outpour will finally bring the water on the bathroom floor to the proper level for Junior to enjoy a good wade.
