This most important of matters i believe needs an open forum for debate and the ever pressing question of Etiquette "is it ever right to lay cable in a friends house?"
Personally i'd say a resounding NO,i mean if a mate came round an then took a dump or stunk the khasi out or god forbid cause a blockage i'd be SEETHING and i woulnd't like to to put others through a similair situation.
I consulted Debretts on this matter and they seem to concur offering this advice
As a rule of thumb a gentleman must never defecate in the house of a friend or relative.however if nature takes it's course and there is simply no other option there are two favoured options.
Always ensure the deposit is done "out of basin" thus ensuring a clean break.Toilet tissue or a towel is usually appropiate.Proceed to dispose of the deposit either via open window or alternatley secrete the item away and dispose of this downstairs in a regular waste unit/bin.(always cleanse rectal area)
Light one match and blow it out (if you can) as soon as you are seated upon the toilet
After you pass your first motion, flush immediately and strike another match, blow it out and wave it around a bit. Repeat this step until you've completed using the receptacle. Cleanse yourself and the area, wash your hands thoroughly and strike one last match the same as you did above before exiting.
Do unto others as you'd have done to thyself is my motto

We've got an outside lav as well as an inside one. If you're not related, you use the outside one. Proper bog roll, though, none of that free local newspaper with the ink coming off it like her next door puts out.

BonViv - please forgive me if I am wrong here, but didn't you tell a story some months ago where your mate or some bird had a shít in the bed in your spare bedroom after you'd gone out on the pull while the breadknife was away?

What about sh!tting in his wife's handbag, going into the garden, twirling the bag containing the feeshus round like an Olympic hammer thrower and sending it 200 yards in God knows which direction through the window and into the living room of some unsuspecting pensioner? Get a **g grip!

It's only a dump - not a matter of life and honour. When did we become so disconnected with mundane reality? And when did your toilet become a substitute for your essential being?
