I lived in Brazil for many years and my MIL/FIL’s house had 2 bathrooms, one for the men and the other for the ladies.

They told me to always use the ladies !, of course out of curiosity I ventured into the men’s bathroom . The “ toilet paper “ was the brown paper bag from the fresh bread bought twice daily  !!

Unfortunately the plumbing there meant no paper down the loo also soooo.... let’s just say it will be a long time before I forget the sight, and smell, of the wicker basket in the corner full of ..... you get my drift ....????

 

The other toilet had proper toilet paper and a flip top bin in the corner, still not a pleasant experience !!

 

Was so happy to encounter bum guns here  ????

My only problem with the "bum Gun" is the hose is to short so I have to lean over to Brush my teeth

She hated it. We lived there for two years recently and contacted a few plumbers about fitting something similar but none seemed confident in doing it and one was massively expensive. She used to go through about a pack of baby wipes every day ????

Plumbers in Oz don't like doing it because there is some BS regulation about bacteria going back into the mains supply. They must be clever little buggers to be able to swim a metre against water flow.

Yes that is another negative point about using toilet paper in such a hot sweaty climate; one's dirty arse gets sore very quickly; even more when u add in the chili ring of fire factor!

Sorry, you misunderstood.

When i go back to "the Motherland", i meant my home country.

I have lived here in TH for 15 + years. Every couple of years go back to the UK, and along with the change in diet/fibre, i dread the use of toilet paper on my piles and sore arse.

In the UK years ago a lot of local water authorities had similar regulations about back syphoning.

Perhaps if there was a non-return valve fitted that would be sufficient. There again, logic doesn't always beat the system.

Funny about that. I haven't heard of any mass epidemics in Thailand caused by backup of bacteria from bum guns.

Where there's a case involving a ferang it's invariably listed as suicide, as they claim it was 'self-inflicted'.

In Ozz sheep-sheering land, they have a box of 'clean' sand from the desert in the dunnies. After the deed is done, you just grab a handful and rub it in. Then it's back to work with the shears.

I think most people/tourists who come to visit here on holiday, if they have a wet room type bathroom back home, the first thing they do is install a bum gun.

Every person who has ever visited us says the bum gun is a revelation compared to smearing shIt all over your crack...

Concur with all the above posts - far more hygenic than crappy paper (excuse the pun).

 

And another thing, going back to the motherland every couple of years for family visits etc - i dread the rigmarole of having to use bog roll to clean my poor, sore arse.

I've found a solution for when I have to visit uncivilized countries that don't have bum guns.

 

I first tried the portable bum gun that's sold in the specialist 'travel bum gun shop' in Siam BTS, but the need for a water bottle made it a problem at airport security.

 

Then I tried an 'ear bulb syringe' which works perfectly.  

 

Travel bliss!

In Australia even Bunnings stock bum guns, let alone the specialist plumbing suppliers !

What tinpot back alley do you call home ?

Sorry, no. You use the crutchings from the shearing. A bit rough if they've been grazing on cockleburrs and bindi-eyes.

I had a plumber mate install 2 bum guns in my house in Australia. He installed non return valves between the bum guns and the water supply to comply with council regulations.

Amazing, it took until February until the annual bum-gun thread started!

And yes, this accessory is a decision maker if I accept a hotel room or not.

One of the reasons I shop at Home Pro is they have bum guns in toilet.  Try never to go anywhere that does not have them. 

The Khon Kaen branch also has a rather nice restaurant.

All in one so to say.

Even installed one back in the UK, so much cleaner. Toilet paper now just for show

It is rather cold there, isn't it.

What an interesting life some have...interesting enough to want to write about it?

It is interesting on many levels.  Physical, cultural, plumbing, cleanliness and godliness, sexuality, happiness, Thai values vs Western values and that's just a start.

felt low class at the end of the procedure 

Pretend it's a bidet which will sound classier.

 

Of course sharing the experience with random strangers on message boards may undermine your quest for classiness.
