The price of poo

Lets face it we all poo all of us. Event the Queen and Alan Sugar have to poo.

But in Cameron's Britain poo is getting more expensive in public. 30p at London train stations!

And McDonald's now have those high security remote control locks, like they have in jewelers.

Is making you pay for your junk before you drop your fudge so much more valuable than diamonds and stuff.

So what's the most you paid for a poo? Was it worth it? Should we be like Afghanistan and poo in the streets?

Sootyj spent £2 on an orange juice in a crappy bar today. Can anyone beat that?

On principle, I don't pay to use a 'public convenience'.

At Hammersmith station it's 50p!!!!

Just to do a tinkle!!!

I recall visiting Yugoslavia before the break up - the smallest note in circulation was 10 dinars, and it cost 300 dinars to spend a penny. Of course 300 dinars was not much more than a penny, but it still came as a shock to part with a wodge of notes. Mind you as they were a bit parsimonious with the paper those 10 dinar notes did come in useful.

The most expensive place I know in London is Westminister tube, which is 50p, but that just may be to deter the peace protesters.

So what do you do then? Or are you the man with the iron bladder?

I landed at an airport in Berlin late one evening and found myself "in distress" and raced through the empty terminals in search of a restroom. I finally found one and the damned thing was blocked by a turnstile that required a 1-euro coin. I'd just flown in from the UK and didn't have anything but pounds and dollars and couldn't speak a word of German to the woman who was mopping the floor. I finally waved a handful of foreign cash at her and did the "I'm going to poop on your floor" dance before she relented and let me through.

I repaid her kindness by making rude noises for several minutes. I was so embarrassed that I didn't leave the stall until she'd finished cleaning and left the room.

I'm glad Mary Whitehouse isn't alive to see this thread. Enough with the poo talk!

What haven't you got a colon or something?

Aparently Peru has no public toilets. As shitting in public is less disgusting than spitting.

Does Enrico Morales poo in the streets?

Restroom

Always makes me laugh.

I had to pay for a poo at Brussell's (prob spelt wrong). I was so desperate I would have forked out hundreds. I was dying for a nice fat poo from the moment I got on the eurostar but I refuse to use toilets on trains. By the time I reached my destination I was walking dodgy what with the turtle popping out & all.

I rested my ass in there but I surely didn't take a bath!

As a kid, I can remember being in a crummy diner on one of our interminably long family road trips that had pay toilets. So we crawled under the door, like any good honest red-blooded American would do.

Haha!

There's quite a posh shop in Birmingham where they charge £2, they have free loos on other floors for poor people...
I don't know quite what you get for £2.

I make sure I go when I have the chance - and find free ones if 'caught short', as it were.
