The Korean city of Suwon has opened what it says is "the world's first toilet theme park".

Bill Maynard has been speaking about his struggle to find a decent toilet seat.

The actor, best known for playing Heartbeat's Claude Greengrass, told BBC Radio 2's Jane Garvey that today's loo seats are not strong enough to take his weight.

The 83-year-old says finding an adequate toilet seat is particularly difficult for people who are heavy and disabled.

These days I spend far to much time going backwards and forwards to the loo.. So I have no desire to visit that park  :whistler:

I think I hear what you're saying Dazz, but for me, I spend much more time going forwards to the loo. Going backwards to the loo is a rarer occurrence thankfully, if you get my drift.   ;)

I can just picture it, Daz backing into the loo while the reversing alarm is sounding!

Hey mate, do you reverse using mirrors or do you just look over your shoulder?  :rofl:

OK, a question for our British friends on here..how many of you have toilet seats/lid made of nice shiny timber?

 :-[

I have done a few trips to ye olde Dart and found many B&B's, private houses, pub rooms etc have ye olde wooden toilet seats. :Shocked:

A couple of nice places I stayed at in England even had heated toilet seats, ye gods. :lol:

Wooden toilet seats are not really big in Australia.

Are you insinuating that us Brits have got big fat arses?........... :evil:

and I haven't seen a wooden toilet seat in years - non too hygienic in my opinion.

I remember well as a kid (well, a child in England) those wooden toilet seats.
Over here we only have plastic ones so in years to come they'll probably find out they're made in China and are carcinogenic and we'll all die from cancerous cheeks or something.  :scared:

I can't recommend them.
I tried one in store one busy Saturday morning and it didn't work. It leaked all over the concrete floor.
Bunnings obviously weren't happy with me complaining either, because they banned me from their store, citing something ridiculous like inappropriate behaviour.  :rolleyes:
Obviously just an excuse..... :whistler:
