Tried to verify that, but it's night now, so life webcams show darkness:

English to Spanish and back:
(EN): Where is the banjo = (ES): Dónde está el banjo = Dónde está el baño = (EN): Where is the bathroom
(except for Spain, those say: ¿Dónde está el water?) "water" from "watercloset", but you pronounce "water" like a Scandinavian "vatter".
And we still have a word "el inodoro" (the odourless, which is well, the pot where you sit on). There is also: "el urinario" if it's to pee only.
The Dutch are the only logic ones. : Waar is de W.C. (where is the W(ater)C(loset)) and the "throne" where you sit on is called "wcpot". and to pee "urinoir" (yup, French word)

Still fresh, damnit!
You have to laugh, really. Everything this government has touched recently has turned into a shitshow, so the only sensible response is to laugh about it until it's time to get angry. And the least said about the DUP the better in my experience at the same time.
