How did the toilet come to be?
The flushing of the toilet actually started in Tudor times. When Queen Elizabeth 1 was on the throne. Her cousin in law was a inventor and he had been banished from the city for a reason I'm unsure of. The cousin asked the queen whether she could come over to look at his new invention the FLUSHING toilet. She went round and was so impressed with his new working invention that she asked him to make lots more for her to put in the castle, and that is how the toilet came to be... TRUE!
