It looks as though you have won your case Boozer

Young man ... you're giving me a right chuckle today.
I luv you!

I've got a feeling that this is gonna be a long leak??

It's as if every time you mention anything, absolutely anything at all, we are instantly supplied with a million photos of some building or a table. Or a toilet door.
There's a place in this world for everyone

Hi Folks.
Wifey and I live in Rhos On Sea/Colwyn Bay here up in lovely North Wales. Just off the promenade there is quite a nice restaurant come leisure centre called Porth Eirias.
As per photographs the establishment makes it very clear that the toilets are for customers only. If you would kindly read my E. Mail I have only just sent to the company CEO then it is very obvious I disagree with that stance.
How do you feel about this then?
Is that policy being not public-spirited, and possibly rather mean?

Good morning.
My Wife and I are locals who live in The Marine View Apartments there next to The Toad Pub.
We are rather concerned about your policy as mentioned in my leader.
To tell you the truth I feel for you to not only have that particular policy, but also to have it shown in a big placard over the entrance door, and also on the front glass door as in photographs is not a very friendly or welcoming or public spirited action either towards locals or tourist visitors.

If you would please just read Tom Utley's article in last Fridays Daily Mail, then that is saying pretty much all my Wife and I would wish to say to you.
Particularly words in bold, just to highlight.
This is not meant to be shouting in any way means or form.
We are mindful to write a letter/contact The Daily Post and Pioneer and other media in respect of this issue.
Also local representatives, and to write a Trip Advisor review in respect of this policy and your establishment after calling in for a coffee and to use your toilets.

Before we do any of that though, my Wife and I would welcome your thoughts in respect of what we have to say here.
Please note that although my Wife and I live local, we have never either eaten or drank or used your toilets since you opened.
At this stage we just wish to object to the principle of your policy.
We don't really need to use your toilets as we live so near, and of course it goes without saying that there are public toilet facilities within walking distance of your establishment.

But that is beside the point.
So we don't have a personal motivation trying to get your rules changed so none customers can use your toilets for ourselves, it is merely and I repeat:
Your policy is not a very friendly or welcoming or public spirited action towards both locals and tourists.

My Wife and I look forward to your reply.

Best regards

Christine and Kenny Thain.

Now we can spend a penny in shops or pubs — without having to spend any pennies. At my age, that is a relief!

TOM UTLEY on cafes and restaurants opening up their toilets for free
Anyway, my point this week is to hail as national heroes the 11,300 pioneering bosses of shops, cafes, pubs and other firms who have signed up to the new Use Our Loos initiative.

Launched by the British Toilet Association, with sponsorship from Domestos, this is the scheme under which participants display stickers outside their premises, advertising that passers-by are welcome to use their facilities, whether they buy anything or not.

But for most businesses, surely, it’s not just public-spirited to welcome passers-by who’ve been caught short.

It also makes sound commercial sense to lure them onto the premises, where they might be tempted to stop for a bite, a drink or a purchase while there.

Speaking for myself, whenever in the past I’ve dropped into licensed premises to relieve myself, I’ve almost always felt obliged to stay for a pint (a bit of a vicious circle, I grant you).

I can’t see that changing if the pub happens to display a Use Our Loos sticker. If anything, indeed, I’ll feel more inclined than ever to give my custom, as a gesture of gratitude for that selfless welcome.

So let me end with a plea to businesses all over the land.

Sign up to this imaginative scheme (details on the BTA website).

You won’t be sorry — and a great many like me will be hugely relieved.

Where to go, when you need to go ?
A national campaign mobilising local business to make their loos accessible to the community they serve.

We all need to use a loo or public restroom when we are out and about each day and it’s getting harder and harder to find a good clean toilet to get relief and allow us to enjoy the local area.

With Local authorities struggling to provide enough facilities, now many local businesses and store owners are keen join into a Community Toilet Scheme (CTS) to make sure that everyone can continue to enjoy local amenities and continue shopping.

Libraries, Museums and Public buildings will also be targeted

The British Toilet Association (BTA)
The BTA along with Uniliver (Domestos Brand), the Gt British Toilet Map, NeonTribe and Edelman have joined forces to promote a National Campaign to record the locations of all publicly available loo’s throughout the UK.

These include toilets provided by local authorities, private providers like Healthmatic and Danfo (UK) and for the first time we will be promoting those facilities provided by local shops/stores and businesses to help all types of users to find relief when travelling or shopping “away from home”

We are currently recruiting a part-time Campaign Manager to help co-ordinate the collection of data and information on all those businesses who want to offer their support to this campaign,

Unilever (Domestos)
Domestos believes that a clean, safe toilet should be within everyone’s reach.
That is why it is tackling the demise of the UK public toilet and making it accessible once more.

Just as Domestos has been doing, in many underdeveloped countries, in partnership with UNICEF for over four years waging the war on poor sanitation, because everyone deserves a clean toilet.--

And back to the original point.
I think you are simply wrong. Would YOU let any odd bod come in off the street to use your loo? A tramp, a junkie, a drunk, a prossie?
Really, would you???

You make an absolutely stupid comparison there,

Hey Floydy.
Get your arse over to the new thread I just started about the video'd 'problem' I had with an Arriva Bus Driver.

Please be gentle with me!
