Peter Mayle described an odd facility which is still used in France. (I know this piece of furniture from my own experience. Imagine my surprise, when I arrived exhilarated in Paris, wanted to powder my nose and came across this unusual device).
It is a
shallow porcelain tray with a hole in the middle and foot-rests at each side. If you use the flushing it is highly probable that your feet get a shower for free. To avoid soggy feet you can try to operate the flushing from the safety of the doorway. For this purpose monkey-like arms are required. You can take a second opportunity and not flush at all. According to Peter Mayle’s opinion, which corresponds to mine, the second variant is prevailing.
