Not sure if it has been posted before...here goes...

The WC

In the old 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, a bathroom is

commonly called a WC which stands for "Water Closet". She wrote to the

schoolmaster inquiring of the facilities about the WC. The school master,

not fluent in English, asked the local priest if he knew the meaning of

WC. Together they pondered possible meanings of the letters and concluded

that the lady wanted to know if there was a "Wayside Chapel" near the

house . . . a toilet/ 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 9 miles from

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 in

the habit of going regularly.

It may be of some interest to you that 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 ex-pressions on their faces. My wife, sadly, has been

ill and unable to go recently. It has been almost a year since she went

last, which pains her greatly.

You will be pleased to know that many people bring their lunch and make a

day of it. Others prefer to wait till the last minute and arrive just in

time! I would recommend your ladyship plan to go on a Thursday as there is

an organ accompaniment. The acoustics are excellent and even the most

delicate sounds can be heard everywhere. The newest addition is a bell

which rings every time a person enters. We are holding a bazaar to provide

plush seats for all since many feel it is 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.

(No wonder, the woman never visited India!!!!)
