    What a load of POOP !......:rotfl::eek:
    Can't sleep, quit counting sheep and talk directly to the shepherd :cool:
  • well the sooner there is a solution widely available the better, so many times have i been told we have to go home early from something just for this reason is crazy, it sounds like the Japanese have the rite idea,
    and going home early and the extra traveling expense of going back sometimes, its not good for money saving so i think you are totally justified in blogging about it.
    i can understand why people get uneasy about public loo's there are so many unhygienic toilets around and the whole we clean every hour thing never really is kept to in most places. :silenced:
  • Layer! (If you know what I mean ;))

    You've heard whalesong - high pitched squeaks fading down to low rumbles - that's it! :rotfl:

  • omigosh this thread was made for me! I'm such a nervous poo-er I just can't do it anywhere but home, I've pretty much trained my body to wait till the evening. But then some days my tummy makes horrifying noises during the day, and on one occasion I've even had to leave work early due to 'tummy ache'! Ridiculous I know, but I just can't physically do it and I know a lot of women will relate.
    Actually, I have nightmares about loos too... maybe there's something else going on here lol.

    All you poo-phobics better not visit the USA - their toilet pipes are so narrow it's difficult to flush the tiniest amount away! Every time we visit relatives over there OH is resigned to sorting blockages after our youngest DS goes:eek:. Will take some dishwasher tablets next time - thanks for the tip:D.

    As a male, I tend to postpone doing my business until I'm home.

    I have a weird thing about using public toilets for number twos. The thought of using a toilet 20 other people have previously used in that day repulses me. Public toilets are often dirty and certain people seem to find it physically impossible to urinate in the toilet bowl, yet they aim perfectly for the seat or floor.

    If I must, I'll hover or cover the seat in toilet paper before I sit down.

  • My Mrs farted on my hand the other day.

    Who said romance was dead.
  • Only some women are afraid to poo, Martin..... (me being one of them). It would take a !!!!!! colon before I would succumb to a bowel movement outside of my own home.

    But the women I work with have no such problem! Dear God, the stench!

    That is my main problem with excreta, I think. If you can smell it, it means that minute particles of faecal matter have become airborne, and are flying up your nose....enough to make anyone gag!:eek: And reason enough, I think, to hold your peace so to speak, until you get home!

    To those OPs who have made the point about saving on loo roll by going at work... I swear the women at my work place are actually doing this, the loos are used constantly, I mean constantly, I begin to wonder how much c**p people can have in them!

    Also it's the obesity thing. So many people overeat don't they, and it has to come out - unfortunately at my place it seems sooner rather than later!! They graze on spicy junk food all day at their desks - and then off to the loos..... ugh!! errr!!!:mad:
