I'm fed up of this aswel, you see toilets around but their either shut or just full of... erm, bits of toilet tissue and stains on the floor with a looming smell like someone hasn't flushed properly or blocked the toilet. I'm sorry to say but i only believe that toilets are shut through out the night because it stops people going in there and having sexual pleasures and doing drugs... but we can all do that somewhere else, so why lock the toilets? We have a law here where we can't expose our selves so we can't pee up (or down) a tree... and so we have toilets locked. What else do you want us to do Council? Break the law? Or just go home? Well, there are homeless people around Newbury, i've seen them. So who is with me on keeping the toilets around newbury open 24/7? If they get vandalised... the council will learn from their mistakes. Simples

The council must decide.

QUOTE (GMR @ Jul 8 2009, 07:58 PM) I wasn't talking about me, but putting that to one side for the moment; i don't drink, but I am a diabetic which means you need the toilet a lot more than usual. There is also the problem of older people who also need the toilet a lot more. I would suggest that most people who are in town after 8pm are probably going for a meal, going to the pub, or going to see something at the corn exchange. As all of these have toilets anyway, people probably aren't really going to the public ones anyway?

True; but on another forum there was another thread that had said that quite a few people noticed people using the bushes to go to the toilet etc.
