ROFL! (I'm glad you didn't mention bathrooms.)

In the UK, we had a lot of cinemas called the 'Tivoli'.

A classic seaside postcard has a courting couple outside such a cinema,
and she is saying: 'Well, if you really want to know, read that sign
backwards'.

But, AJA, why this flurry of postings about Tivoli?
Clearly we don't want any of whatever it is, but why did the salesman
imagine he could interest you in it?
