John

Answer:

LOO

Hint:

British slang for where you might find John when nature calls.

Explanation:

"John" is British slang for a toilet, often used humorously or informally. The answer "LOO" is another common British term for the same thing, making this a straightforward synonym swap. Think of it like calling a bathroom a "restroom" or "lavatory"—just a different word for the same place.
