I like this in South Shields but now it’s a restaurant or something

They have some temp ones they put out in Bristol at the weekend for the stag dos . I don’t know how much the people who collect them on a Sunday morning get paid but it can’t possibly be enough.

Jesus I despise that, but mainly because it’s comedically inept.

  1. the silly items outnumber the serious items which leads me to believe every cock in the marketing team got to make a suggestion.
  2. unpaid bills and junk mail are essentially the same gag
  3. you can’t finish with goldfish since it’s less wacky than hopes and dreams. Goldfish could conceivably by flushed down a toilet. Hopes and dreams are abstract concepts with no physicality so they can’t. Therefore it needs to finish on it
  4. it’s very hard to laugh at stupid signs when everything around you is covered in piss and there’s no soap.

So do Waltham Forest - they do the same for providing free tap water as well.

Get this. There is no toilet in the bike shop that I teach spin classes in. That’s weird right? Where are the people that work there pissing and shitting?!

So the other week I had to go into some physiotherapist place across the road and ask to use their toilet. Do you know what they said?

“Yes, but only if you take off your shoes”

so I had to take off my shoes to go use the bathroom. Very weird.

Well, only if I’ve eaten/drunk there

  • Me too, I have decorum and understand principles of trade and exchange of services
  • I just do what I want like an entitled animal

Used a loo in a hotel recently, was greeted by a member of staff when I left saying they were for guests only

“But guests would surely have their own toilet in their room?”

blank stare

“Bye!”

There’s a café on the A40 or the A449 that has a sign on the door saying “NO TEA, NO WEE”. Can’t find a picture of it though.

They have water fountains in pretty much every park / beach / public space in America. There are so few in the UK and it’s a bit of a disgrace really.

One of the things I’ve noticed from China/SE Asia is that there are public toilets absolutely everywhere. They’re all rancid but you know, plentiful. God knows what tourists think when they come to the UK.

Toilets are for customers only. Fine I’ll piss in your doorway.

can’t think of any pay toilets in Belfast, or very many in NI at all (there’s a pay toilet in my hometown that I’ve never ever used because there are some free toilets about 5 minutes away).

as a slightly anxious person i hate being in English or Scottish cities and running round looking for a toilet cos i don’t have the right change on me. when you’re not used to them, the idea of having to have change and pay to go to the toilet in the train station or shopping centre is an absolutely bizarre and obscene idea. you’d think not having to piss your pants in public would be a pretty basic human right but apparently not?

couple of years ago i flew to Manchester and realised on arrival at the coach station that i’d lost my wallet somewhere along the journey. was panicked and stressed and needed a piss while waiting for my pre-booked coach to Leeds, found you had to pay for the fucking station toilet so ran round to a nearby pub and sidled into the toilet. man behind the bar had a go at me as i was leaving so i tried to explain my sob story but he just kept saying “It’s manners to ask”, which is fair but makes me think even more that he’d probably have said no if i had. think i ended up shouting “SORRY THEN!” and storming out pathetically.

generally try not to make it obvious if i’m doing that though. in Belfast if i can’t use one of the bus/train stations/shopping centres/uni/public toilets, there are a couple of pubs I know are good shouts - a couple that have multiple rooms/back bars and preferably more than one entrance/exit so you can create the illusion that you’re on your way in or on the way out. and one that has the toilets outside the main entrance for the perfect crime.

sometimes consider carrying my work pass around with me even when i’m off, for an easy access hassle free piss.
