never heard of head before well not in this context anyway{#lang_emotions_wink}

 

As for my previous "Dunny" i checked the spelling to be sure on the sites dictionary(dyslexic on board) and it tells me that in english it means stupid and deaf..... this is very wrong ha ha how confusing for the learners. perhaps dummy is better

 

we will have people wanting to call someone stupid but saying toilet instead

Stop it!  ´Head´ is what they call the toilets in the navy.

Dunny is Australian

Another old-fashioned word is ´privy´  also ´karzi´ (not sure of spelling)

´Little girl´s room´/´Little boy´s room

 Yeh - that´s what I thought originally but couldn´t find it and after I posted I looked it up and got this:

 

Karzi [karsey, karsy] noun: British Slang. lavatory, bathroom, where women congregate and talk. (Source: Ye olde cockney bloke.)
Then I found it your way as well!  It´s not a really a word a LAAADEEE would use anyway is it?!  lollol
