QUOTE (Good Boy Racer @ Jul 13 2009, 11:00 AM) Whats the harm in the council actually buying some porta loos and placing them somewhere convenient? Seriously, this would be great, but you would obviously need to employ someone to come along and to take your crap away, unless they can be perminantly piped up to take your crap to the sewer. GBR you have such a way with words

Have you seen the state porta loos get after they've been in place longer than a morning? Not nice. And it would probably be cheaper in the long run to just build more permanent toilets, rather than having to buy all those chemicals all the time,

Last night 15th July about 1 in the morning i went to tesco coming back from a Female friends house ... and i very much needed the toilet, the main reason for me going to tesco then was to get my dad a birthday present as its his birthday today. But because i had been waiting to go to the toilet when driving, i was hoping to use the facilities. They were closed... so i went under the barriers that were blocking the toilet door and i heard a shout 'TOILETS CLOSED, SECURITY! This is when i was like hmm shall i go quickly or just come back out quietly i ended up buying something and as i was leaving i spoke to one of the ladies working there and she said you could use the toilets upstairs... my moulth was why have them open and not downstairs? what if i needed a number 2 and i was going to struggle to get any closer...? I didn't tell her this as i didn't want to make a fuss. But it goes to show stupidity and bad service... nothing wrong with using the toilets, it attracts customers

QUOTE (Strafin @ Jul 17 2009, 03:31 PM) If the toilets are closed, they are closed, it is not a right that you should be able to go in there whenever you like. If I had seen you doing that I would probably be writing on here about the idiot who doesn't think the rules apply to him. # Why isn't it a right? Don't the council work for the people and if they want it then shouldn't it be so? We do live in a democratic society and if there are a reasonable amount of people who want something then the council should bend to the people; not the other way around. Just because rules are there doesn't mean they are acceptable or shouldn't be challenged. As I said we are in a democracy, not a dictatorship where people in authority's words are gospel.
