    First thing I did when I got back from Japan was find out where I could buy a Japanese toilet.

    Ended up instead buying one of those mechanical powered loo attachments on Amazon and it works like a dream.

    Doesn't play music unfortunately :/

    There is a cultural cringe associated with them now. They were all the go in the 70s carpeted pink or avocado green bathroom and now they are seen as an anachronism from that time nobody wants to be reminded of. Nothing to do with the functionality of the bidet ifself

    Because there was no sex in Ireland when most of the houses were built. Honest. Oliver Flanagan said so.

    Except in Ireland in the 70s almost nobody had ever seen one except on TV (invariably the subject of some terrible joke on a British sitcom.)

    Scrap the cap!
