I think the state of our public toilets is generally pretty awful. Travelling around Scotland I know of toilets which won awards years ago, but now they're crap, to put it plainly. I think the same has happened with toilets in some premises.

Surely that's appropriate!

I don't mind a dirty lav and in the context of being in an Irish pub that has a handful of regulars to just about keep it going I can understand if they have a toilet that is cold, damp and always smells of poo but a pub that has bucket loads of cash coming in from drinkers and diners it's about time they revamped the bogs. I suspect what has prevented it is that the pub is in an old bank and the toilets cover a large area in the basement. Far too big to be refurbished as toilets in the same space but probably not allowed to use them for anything else or rent it out.
What makes my blood boil are toilet cubicles that don't have locks fitted because that is a 10 minute job for any handyman. Even worse are cubicles where the door doesn't have a lock and will naturally swing open so you have do your business and also keep the door held shut so it doesn't swing open. I did this a lot during my clubbing days 20 years ago when bouncers didn't want locks on the cubicle doors but now when I visit a pub for a meal and few drinks I expect a nice throneroom with adequate locks. I'm not there to rack up or cut tags of clothes and it inslults me I'm considered as such when I just want some toiletry solitude.

How poetic! I like that!
I just saw an advert for "Invictus by Paco Rabanne". The song was by (C)Rapper Kanye West! F**king Hell. Greg Lake must be turning in his grave!
That bloody song on the Argos adverts hasn't changed for about 3 years and I used to like it but now I just want to stuff a football sock in to her gob.
Some idiot backed into the side of my car while I was waiting at a stop sign in a parking lot. Man, the last month has been terrible.
Toiletry solitude. Reminds me of the toilet skit in The Italian Job. Superb Caine, Coward and LeMesurier. Classic!

Sounds like he was lucky you didn't ask him to draw...

Haven't used a public loo (wherever it is situated), for a number two since the 60s because one day then I was having a desperate crap in a council toilet when................and you now how it is when you have the distinct feeling that someone is looking at you...............I looked up and there was this perv staring down at me from the cubicle next to "mine".
Have never wiped my arse and raised trousers so quickly to get out and give the voyeur a good thumping but of course he had a head start on me and by the time I got out of the toilet block the lecher had disappeared in the crowd.
From then on I vowed never to be caught out again and so "trained" myself to have a shit first thing in the morning in the privacy of my own bog. So yes, I agree and have to say that also a good shit is one that has to be savoured, not rushed and if anything should be enjoyed.
As an ex sewerage worker I fully concur. 
This thread has really gone down the pan.

I'm sorry to say I laughed out loud at this.
Reminds me of when I was working in a one-man railway station. Sold the tickets, swept the platform and checked the loos.
One day the gents was so blocked it wouldn't flush away and I had to clear it by marigold gloved hands. One of the most disgusting things I've ever had to do.
Boak, boak, boak!
