	I think Americans are more famous for saying 'bathroom' than 'toilet'. If you're just doing slang... maybe 'john'?

	I would cut the words curtains and condom because these words are commonly used in the US to mean the same thing as they do in the UK. The equivalent word for copper in the US is cop, so it really doesn't work too well. Youg might look at http://www.sporcle.com/games/theox/BritishWords and http://www.sporcle.com/games/brdecker/british_american as well.
