The Greek sanitary system wasn't designed for anything other than bodily waste
So they put tissue in bins by the toilet, it's not his fault he didn't know it was different here, I'm sure someone could have explained it somehow.

You say that....
... but YOU know that about the Greek plumbing system, presumeably without having gone to live in Greece?

Perhaps it's just me but if I was going to live in a foreign country, I'd learn a bit about the place before I went. Or at least ask my fellow country men after a day or so why this country didn't have the traditional nasty bins.

I only know because I went on holiday there
and we were told at every turn not to flush loo roll, and while we were there the hotel STILL got flooded with sewerage because some visitors just couldn't get their head around it.
