You must stop writing at once! Your pages are disgrace to VT community and they literally stink. I am reporting you to the VT police and your days here are counted!

The poets in action

Toilet poetry

The famous toilet guide has lately inspired some members into poetry:

themajor Fri Jun 20, 2008 10:46 IDT
Your toilet guide is a delight / My favourite loo? I can't decide! / Ideally sparkly - pristine - white, / This page should leave you flushed with pride!

Trillian2005 Fri Jun 20, 2008 12:11 IDT
LOL!!! ...and from me too / delightful greetings from the loo / it works flushingly well / what else is there to tell...


The toilet guide welcomes more poets!
