Jay, I am confused, you say

" I have had need to use them in the past but they have never been in that state."

Just how many times have you frequented the ladies loo??

Anyway, my friend does contract cleaning for a big island company and his main job is cleaning public areas and the toilets and always says the ladies are the worst!

This is true and I will not go into detail as I do not want my comment removed, but he says some women do not actually use the toilet but must hover to one side and go on the floor! He has told me a lot worse, anything and everything you can possibly imagine!! How he has done this job for 12 years without quitting is beyond me!!

I know this item as about the Gents Toilets but.......I was almost caught short while shopping in Newport on Saturday, I went into the ladies toilets in Post Office Lane, looked around and had to walk out again, they were disgusting. I have had need to use them in the past but they have never been in that state.
