Yesterday morning, I was taking a leisurely – though urgent – poo in Bologne airport when someone in another trap flushed their toilet. At it flushed, sustained flecks of water from my own pan shot upwards towards my sallow, hair-specked buttocks. I hadn’t yet finished and for the ensuing five or so minutes, every time a toilet flushed, I was splattered with fecal-infested water.
It pretty much ruined my entire day
Is this an Italian thing, or just bad plumbing?
