Alpo Posted October 29, 2024 Posted October 29, 2024 I figured y'all are closer to speaking English then we are. What do you call a toilet kit? Of course maybe I need to first ask what do you think a toilet kit is? I did a search on what the British call a toilet kit. All I got was what they call a toilet. So then I asked the all-knowing internet what a toilet kit was. It told me that was the pieces inside the toilet tank - the flapper and the float and the upright pipe that the water comes in. So once again the all-knowing internet is an idiot. A toilet kit is the bag you put your razor and your shaving cream and your washcloth and your toothbrush - the kit you use when you perform your morning toilet. Stupid damn internet. So what do y'all call a toilet kit? My brain has finally just kicked in, and I believe the British refer to it as a sponge bag. I also remember that the British do not use a washcloth. They use a flannel.

Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted October 30, 2024 Posted October 30, 2024 I always called it my Dopp Kit, (Army) as did my Father (RCAF)
