Delightful Sight at City Hall

At 17:00 today a gentleman was urinating through the railings at city hall, a great advert for Belfast with the area full of tourists.

    I cringed as I watched some of the tourist reactions, are there no security staff employed to prevent this?

    Wouldn't have thought it would be top of the list of things they'd be expecting on a normal afternoon in Belfast !! I'm assuming he was !!!!!! ?

    This sort of thing happens in every big city in the world. I once saw a woman swat down in a paved square in a park on the continent and well, how should I say this it was a little more solid than what that guy did. BTW it was not a marathon runner.

    I am not condoning it and it is surprising he was not arrested. He was bound to be caught on at least one of the security cameras.

    or Shaftsbury square after 11pm.

    Maybe you should lobby your MLA to put the same popup urinal outside City Hall as they have on Shaftsbury.

    It could happen to any of us. Luckily any time I was caught short the toilets in the city hall were open. :rotfl:

    Er, no it couldn't! I need to wee just as often as anyone, but I've never done it in public.

    If this man was at City Hall, there are any number of public toilets, bars and cafes nearby, he could have used one of those (and yes, 99% of them will let you use their toilets if you ask nicely). There's no excuse for such disgusting behaviour.
