Where does the word "Toyce" come from?

Anything that doesn't fit anywhere else, but that's still CH related.

We had the box beside the bed .....
....which we used to call a "settle". Strange how I remember that but I don't remember using the word 'Toyce'. The more usual term for a toyce is a 'carrel unit' but I don't think it was ever called that at CH.
Not surprising, Geoff. Toyces were only in the design stage when we were there. In the design I saw they could swing out from the wall.
We had partitions on the top table.
