with reference to the phrase "spending a penny" meaning using the bathroom; from the old public toilets requiring a penny to open the door lock.
A Downing Street spokesman has confirmed that in order to meet the
conditions for joining the Euro, the phrase 'spending a penny' is
not to be used after the 31st of December 2001.
From this date the correct terminology will be 'euronating'.
