They're not the nicest of things at the best of times, but is it true that there is some risk that you can catch STIs from them? If you're not careful and they're not clean, of course.
Just wondering, because I'm a wee bitty paranoid when I want to be!

I never said you can't, I just ment that the process is quite similar :razz:
Baby changing rooms too, they are like hell on earth, the pungent aroma of stale shite makes me boak everytime
But I was just wondering!
What is somewhat more likely is getting Hep C in the male toilet, when blokes pee some of it goes up into the air and stays there as a mist, you can get Hep C like this. Though to do so you'd have to stay in there for ages and be really unlucky.
Pay to pee? Even I would go outside
I hate using public toilets but I still use them. I just hover over them. Lol. I won't sit on them.
Yeah but they get you in there first and then the sign is on the way out to pay, and there was even a woman behind a counter waiting for the money! i was like ok...here ya go....weird
Rip tbh, but meh. Suppose it pays the cleaners. Best one was in Berlin, at the Hostel, we were in there showering... and there was a female cleaner doing the blokes showers. It was like "Yeah... erm... I am trying to dress here."
Yeah i hate that. I was in London and waited until i got back home to Aylesbury. Theres toilets in Exeter open at night but you have to pay. Like drunk people will bother...
It sucks that they make you pay for them in stations, cause they're the place you need them the most; just after a long journey!!
these were still a state, at least i was only having a pee.
Abroad they often are, where there is a toilet attendant whose job it is to make sure everything's in good order.
I've had varying experiences over here. I suppose you might not take much pride in your work if it involved toilet duties... but the majority tend to
I'm actually not too bothered about public toilets. If they seem relatively clean I'll sit on them; if they're not clean enough to sit down and have a little rest on then I usually just hold it in
I was just going to say that. lol
as a rule, weatherspoons usually have decent toilets if you are on the look out for one
It costs you 20p to use York public toilets, unless you grab the door when someone else is coming out and don't let it close. They are ok though, they won the award for 'best public toilet' in Bella magazine last year :yes:
on our old bus station in town which was only knocked down about 4 years ago it was 2p for a cubicle, it was still that price when it closed. ahh bless.
it was a right dump tho, i'd rather do it on a back street.
Hey! If you're anything like me, then on the way back from drinking you have spent all your money. So as such, a phone box is a free, enclosed, warm, alternative. Just dont get your shoes.
Plus you can look like you are busy on the phone.
A back alley is SO much easier though.
