Flush your toilets and get back to me...

I don't know about the rest of you, but I've always heard that toilets on the other side of the world swirl in the opposite direction. In an attempt to research this topic with little effort on my part, I'm blogging. lol

So far, I've learned, through conversations that:

1. In Australia the water levels are low and it's too hard to see which way the water swirls.
2. In Thailand, the water levels are really high
3. My own toilet (USA) has a counterclockwise flow and USA toilets vary in water levels.

So, in the worldwide pursuit of knowledge, go flush your toilet and report back.

MIchelle, hate to tell you this but with the new low-flo toilets required by environmental law, the pump inside them pushes instead of swirls. Yet another sensual difference we've lost in this high tech world.

Don't get me started....*gg*

However, I have it on good authority that if you can find an old southern hemi toilet, it will swirl clockwise.

Yeah, I just had a look and the water came out from different parts of the bowl so there was no real swirl in either direction. Hmmm...I will check at work on Monday. :-)
