And now I know that a bathroom (or a "can", or the "head" over here) is a loo in England.

I finally understand what the song Skip to my Loo is all about...

And over here, why do women refer to the bathrooms as "The Little Ladies room" or the "Little Boys Room?" As in, "I'll be right back; I have to go visit the Little Ladies Room." Visit? Of course... it's a necessary place to visit but no one would want to live there..
