    I went to some public loos near the Tower of London last summer. They were incredible...the lady looking after them (ladies BTW) EVEN POLISHED THE COPPER WATER PIPES - she took a real pride in her work and I DID tell her how delightful they were...

    dubai airport anyone? i had a 10hour layover in dubai airport and to my shock and horror found out that culturally, no tissue is used (for short or long calls), instead a pressure water hose is used to clean up :eek: So any bathroom you'd walk into (despite having tissue provided) would have water all over the loo floor that was used to wash their private areas (front and back). Luckily i made good use of my 10hours and made sure to investigate almost every single loo location at the airport and was lucky enough to find one in a low traffic area of the airport and sort of deserted which is the one i ended up using which at least had dry floors *whew*.

    anyway, going back to public loos here in the UK, i notice when it's loos at a workplace there are certain levels of respect and they'll always be clean....but when it's a store/leisure centre/library or other public place then the loos are always appalling!

    I find service station toilets are actually quite good these days. Supermarket ones are a bit iffy round us.

    Austria is the place for quality toilets. Even the smallest cafe has immaculate loos. It's a pleasure to poop.

    Dubai airport, I recall.

    Water, water water.....very hygenic. My bottom was thoroughly rinsed. Quite a sensation really and refreshing and clean. Was a little dissapointed when I had to return to smearing a tissue once again :-(
