The toilets of Greece

Greek Toilet
According my my plumber mate, the toilets in Australia and other western countries have 4 inch sewerage pipes. In Greece the pipes are only 3 inches, so there is more chance of a blockage if the paper goes as well.
If I didn't hear this tale, I may have had a hard time guessing what some of these picture signs meant.
This system is now the custom in Greece, even if a toilet can withstand paper and poo.

Hi-tech toilets of Japan
To start off with the seat was heated. I'm not sure if this was a built in feature or due to the fact that I was hot seating after a portlier than normal Japanese man.
On the right hand side is a control panel with instructions in Japanese and Braille, but no English. With a possible risk of a hot jet of water splashing me before I was ready I pressed some of the buttons. Nothing happened, so I pressed all the buttons in different combinations, and still nothing happened. It appears that you need to be a commercial pilot or a Rhodes Scholar to operate these things. Either that or the toilet was broken.
It did flush though, saving myself and the queue of Japanese guys lots of blushes all round as I finally emerged from the cubicle.
