    Default A gift to fellow EB fans: Historical pictures galore!

    This is about 6 months late, but I've been finally able to host all the pictures of my honeymoon in Italy / Greece / Turkey. Before, these were hosted on my own machine, but now they're hosted on a professional server (word to the wise: don't host your own website at home, the cheap man pays the most!). These included tons of pictures of ruins, vases depicting gods and battles (often taken while the museum docents weren't looking), as well as bronze weaponry and armor. Hopefully these will help your imagination while playing EB.

    Take a peek.

    Yes, that's called a "German Toilette" or "Tableau Style". More common, at least in private houses, is the "French Toilette", that has the hole in the middle, what is more comfortable, in particular during "longer sessions". The brush you'll find next to every WC in Germany. It is meant to clean the WC from any traces of your deeds afterwards.

    Don't know about you Foot mate but 4/5 of the toilet brushes I see in the UK would probably just make the bog worse if you tried to use it ;)

    Nice pics anyway Ferro, cheers for posting up here been to a few of the locations myself (chiefly in Greece, Rhodes and also Kushadasi/Ephesus) but unfortunately didn't have a digicam at the time so its nice to recap :)
    Cheers

    Yeah, we had a stopover in Frankfurt, and I thought it was just hilarious. If you don't aim quite right, your duty just ah er, sits there. I suppose the Germans encourage you to inspect the goods? Or it's to prevent a blowback effect on your bum when you deploy your charge? Okay I'll stop now. I won't even get into how Greek plumbing works.

    I didn't get what's special about that toilet... a "lip"? Edit: Ah... I think I understood.
