Need to use a Squat pot?

If you are ever in a situation where you need to use an "Eastern" toilet, you'll thank me later for posting step by step instructions.  

Squat pot and instructions!
Step 1: Lower yourself into half-sitting position above the toilet.  (place feet firmly on both sides)
Step 2: Hum a tune; enjoy yourself as you let go.
Step 3: Done? Point the washpipe towards your bottom. Press to release a stream of water. Keep up the pressure until all the waste is cleansed.
        If running water is not available, use mug and and bucket to draw water.  Empty it forcefully towards your bottom
Step 4: Throw water in buckets forcefully down the hole to drain away all waste.
        Note: using water is a more hygienic way to clean yourself.  But if you have to use toilet paper, throw it into the wastepaper basket AND NOT DOWN THE TOILET.  (the pipe may get clogged)

Thank you.  The place is a lot cleaner with folks like you around.


I'm determined to find one of these signs (hopefully smaller) for our bathroom one day. 

This was found at our favorite restaurant in Kovalam....  The Germany Bakery.  It is premonsoon season so of course it stormed this evening!
