Something a little bit gross

As you'd expect when you're overseas, here in Kazakhstan toileting is done a little differently.
Apparently their sewerage system isn't as capable as ours in Australia and it is not customary for people to flush their toilet paper down the toilet. What do they do? They wipe and then put it in the bin. Yuck!
Usually this doesn't affect us. We're a bit naughty and insist on the conventional flush after you use rule. Where our plan begins to fall apart is when people come to our house and go by the Kazakh rule instead of the Cameron rule. We had a heap of people over last night and this morning when I went to put something in the bin I was greeted by evidence that I did not really want to see. Gross!
