    Train loos.

    Especially the Virgin Pendolino ones.

    People who forget to press the Lock button.

    Open Sesame....

    Toilet too far from door to reach....

    The thing I hate most about Virgin trains - the entire train seems to stink of whatever they clean the loos with. Plus I have read SO many stories about people being on them and the door opening, as you say.

    Yep, I've seen it. On the way back from a festival when the train was packed with stinky festival goers sitting on every inch of floor a poor old bloke who looked like he was in his seventies ended up weeing with his backside exposed and the door wide open.

    He didn't actually seem bothered and took a bow after finishing though, awesome chap!

    I remember when I was a young teenager I once took a poop in the school toilets - within a day the 'story' had gone round the whole school and I'd hear whispers of 'well at least she washed her hands' :rotfl:

    I don't like taking a pooh at work, that whole sitting there waiting for someone to use the hand dryer or flush the toilet and hoping to god that nobody's going to walk into the cubicle when you're done (or at least before you're out of eye shot). You can't really flush your own toilet because then when you don't walk out straight after, you're announcing to everyone that pooh is taking place. Still, when you've got to go...

    What irritates me is women who decide to have an inpromptu meeting or 'important' telephone call in the toilet and then get visibly irate when the hand dryer goes on and they can't hear each other :mad:

    A guy my OH works with told him that he can only do a poo if he is completely naked!

    :rotfl::rotfl:that made me laugh!

    If i have to go in work, i go. I'm not going to make myself ill by holding it in. Honestly, i don't think i could wait until i got home anyway??

    So were you the first and only person ever to use the school toilets?

    So what do you do? Flush somebody else's? That's not how it is supposed to work!
  • My poo strategies are...

    Loo paper to deaden the splash


    Or


    Time the toilet flush just before the drop!




    Never fails!

    Lol, you'd have thought I was the only person who'd used it with the big deal that was made out of it! They obviously though their s**t din't stink :D

    :rotfl: just the etiquette in my workplace then?

    You mean to say you flush while you're sitting on the loo? How is that possible? :undecided
