Default My head ,, it doesn't have a holding tank ,, question

Lew ................... wait ... isn't a toilet called a -----------

Loo
The origin of the (chiefly British) term loo is unknown. However there are
numerous theories. Some of these a

That the word comes from nautical terminology; loo being an old fashioned
word for lee. The standard nautical pronunciation (in British English) of
leeward is looward or lieuward. Early ships were not fitted with toilets but
the crew would urinate over the side of the vessel. However it was important
to use the leeward side. Using the windward side would result in the urine
blown back on board. (The phrases '****ing into the wind' and 'spitting into
the wind' also refer to this problem.) Even on modern yachts, most (male)
yachtsmen, whilst at sea, find it more convenient to go to the loo, than to
use the heads.


Lew/Loo ..................... you are named after a "toilet".

When I am out on my boat, my cheeks are flexing over my beautiful blue
bucket ... LOO ... named Lew ......... I will think of YOU

"Here it comes Lew" ... another bucket of **** in my Loo. My LOO named Lew.
