Samuel Becket,Gioccometti and an Artist friend of ours,Virgil Nevjestic,used to go to a café in Monparnasse to get rat-arsed.Their favorite table was near the toilet.One of those hole in the ground squat types.The "fun" to be had was in knowing that this toilet,when flushed,would send water everywhere,to about knee high,and seeing the state of the victim's trousers and shoes on imerging.Followed by the arguement at the bar between the victime and the barman!
