    Once inside we realised there were pay-as-you-go movie cubicles, we didn’t use them but noticed a guy mopping them out and emptying the bins, he had to hold them up-side-down and tap the rim on the edge of his cart to get the more stubborn tissues out.

    Does it get any worse?
    Sounds cushy compared with the poor sods down on the sewage farm, who have to slosh about in the "mud" raking huge mounds of condoms and tampons.

      Did the staff keep forgetting his name or something? I suppose if he did not have a pen, then what else could he do?

        Yes, when myself and some mates went into the "monkey spanking booths" in Netherlands, we wished we had tied our shoelaces up properly...

          Mondays where the worst as the poo had been festering over the weekend in the specimen bottles. You got a real stink opening them.
          Whereas, when they were fresh they smelt of roses ?

            The GF works as a doctor so I get a few rank tales over the dinner table.

            She had to swab a guy's knob a few days after he got a bit eager with a cheese grater one night, or when they had to send a bloke in for an op to remove the solidified window sealant he decided to pump into his third eye.
