Walked into the ladies' changing room by mistake at a leisure centre once. Two ladies there were both fully dressed darn it!

I misread the title and thought it said, "I scored a lady"
I was intrigued...

Will you use that defence in court?Originally posted by Wilmslow View PostI was happily minding my own business on the throne, when suddenly the door opens.
A lady I had not yet met turned on her heels distraught clearly not knowing where to look.
It turned out that the lock was loose, and I did not forget to lock the door as I initially thought.
Has anyone got a better ice-breaker to a new colleague?

This insight in to our technique might explain a lot as well. Best with sound. (it's not real so not horrible).Originally posted by mudskipper View PostI have to confess that on opening the door, I did think "These toilets stink!" Why is it that men's toilets smell so much worse than women's?

Years ago when a bank were refurbishing a building they were moving to I spent a few days setting up a server and 30 PCs for an application. While they were rebuilding I had been in either the server room or on the main floor, the other floors where the gents was were still being refurbed. We all used the ladies loo.
The system goes live without a hitch and a colleague does the go live (I was abroad or away installing something else) then a month or two later they wanted a few more PCs & some extra features added. I turned up unloaded the PCs rushed up to the loo, opened the door and was greeted by a number of ladies in bank uniform - oops! explained, apologised and went up one floor (not an euphemism).

Because we have to turn around mid flow to look at some daft bird that's walked in to the toilet and end up sprinkling the wall and floor.Originally posted by mudskipper View PostI have to confess that on opening the door, I did think "These toilets stink!"

Host of other reasons. Urinals only flush every so often if at all, you flush right after every pee. We can't get it all in the urinal to save our lives. Clears won't clean up when the floor is half an inch deep in raw piss.. And so on.
Next time you've had 10 pints and an alarming sway on. Try pouring your wine in to a 2 foot diameter glass over a 2 foot distance. It's nigh on impossible I tell ye!Last edited by northernladuk; 18 October 2018, 09:46.

The bogs on platform 4 at Reading station have got strange signs. Rather than the man standing with legs together as tradition, they've gone for a more realistic stance, with his legs slightly apart. At a glance, when you're in a hurry and not wearing your glasses, the shape is rather similar to the angled skirt shape one associates with the women's toilet.
I'd made it all the way to the cubicle before I realised I'd walked past two men at the urinals.

Probably went off for a magnifying glass.Originally posted by woohoo View PostAre you sure that she was scared? Could be her screaming was in fact hysterical laughter?

You're confusing "morbid curiosity" with something more positive, I'm afraid, NLUK.Originally posted by northernladuk View PostWhere as when I get caught knocking the top off in the bogs by a fair maiden she can't take her eyes off it.
I guess, in some respects, size does matter.
