Yes, I've noticed on US TV programs the strange habit you Americans 
have of calling large rooms 'a closet'. Then the character will 
apologise for making someone sleep in this supposed 'closet', which 
by the look of it could comfortably sleep a couple of teenagers. And 
probably the dog. And a pair of gerbils. With room for the tropical 
fish tank left over. :-)

Personally, I call a room 8ft by 6ft 'my bathroom'. Bathtub is 
included.

We're a very small country, with a lot of people that we've got to 
shoehorn in somewhere [grin].
