In Islamic countries, as everyone knows, it is forbidden not to use water to 'wash' your bum. As a result, all bogs have this wonderful contraption that directs a jet of water onto the offending area. All you have to do is wiggle a bit over it and your are clean albeit a bit drippy, but then again, you can just dry up with whatever takes your fancy.
