I rather liked the Middle Eastern / Asian Squatting closets. You squat and about 30cm off the floor sticking out of the left wall is a water tap with a can under it (ex beetroot can for example) and you use that with your left hand. That's why they only eat with the right hand.

After a year in Turkey, going back to toilet paper seemed a bit unsatisfactory.
 
Bidet's are where its at. Who needs a hand or paper when water can do all the dirty work for you...?

Sponge is where its at. Who needs a hand or paper when Sponge will come round to your place and do all the dirty work for you.
Sponge and Bum should get together I reckon.

Bidets are very common in UK and Europe as most people only need to bath three or four times a week. And no they don't reek, the climate takes care of that. However certain parts of the anatomy get out of step in the hygiene dept, hence the benefit of le bidi.

However due to the uniquely Australian obsession with daily showering, bidets never took off here.
My showering schedule during the winter if I am working Friday and Saturday (typical):

Friday
Sat

Sun
Mon
Tues
Wed
Thurs

A pack of Aldi moist baby wipes takes care of Sun Tues and Thurs
 
Well the Greeks may know a thing or two about Socratic reasoning, how to run the Olympics correctly (naked) and naming buildings after gods, but they know **** all (happy wowser's..) about plumbing.
We stayed in a flash hotel on the island of Mykonos a few years back, stunning views of the Aegean sea, poolside bar, tasteful decor.

We were advised by the lady at reception to deposit our soiled toilet tissue in a bin beside the bowl rather than flush it. Not a hermetically sealed bin mind you, just a flappy lid job. Needless to say we ignored that advice and took the punt.
In honour of the afore mentioned Socrates, I reasoned that if the daily discharge generated by my huge consumption of souvlaki, egg plant based dips and Amstel beer didn't require a maintenance man with a strong back and a plunger, than a few squares of bog roll were hardly going to tip the scales.

Always go the full flush, and when in doubt, give it another hit, that's the key.
 
You need to burst rinse if you wish to save water Bribie, unless your obsession with not showering provides some unique advantage like a manly aroma or an extra couple of minutes to spend on AHB.
 
He's just a dirty ol pom with a curry and internet porn addiction... Leave Bribie the FWACK alone :)
 
You guys have too much time to spend on rating your 'Pipe Wipe'
