Gallery is so cheap, why wouldn't you?

You should do your picture taking with Gallery in mind, though, for best results.

Spend a penny

Meaning

To use a public lavatory.
Origin

This refers to the (former) use of coin operated locks on public toilets.



Not sure what this has to do with putting
pics in your gallery, unless fluffy hangs out in mens rooms with a video camera.

Just dont sit on the tiolet seats...you'll end up with VD

If you dont want to hear the truth....dont ask the question.

Makes me chuckle..

I was born and lived in England until I was in my mid-twenties.

We always used the term 'Spend a Penny'. It was also in the good old days when there was always an Attendant on duty who was usually a portly matronly cheerful type. Once you had put your Penny in the slot and opened the door she went in and wiped the seat and flush handle and door knob. Then and ONLY then could you P.

I went back to visit in 1979 after the introduction of the decimal coinage system and was shocked...yea...shocked...to find that it was now ~ 2p to p ~
