Reply to: Urinal recommendations

[allanyoung]

I'm having a wet room installed and, since the traffic through my house is largely male, I'm toying sith the idea of a urinal.

Any of you lot got one?

Not sure whether to go for one or 2 standalone appliances or get a trough. Most of those seem to be made of cheap metal these days though. I guess a reclamation yard may have an old porcelain trough especially when one considers how many public wcs have closed over the years.


Yes, definitely tempted on a trough - if only for the sport of chasing the fag end from one end to another.

Ever heard "toilinal"?.....toilinal = toilet + urinal

Check out the video on youtube:

According to the animal behavior, the exist unisex toilets (so called) in houses are neither fair nor qualified for both sexes.

A new generation of sleek, unisex hygienic apparatus that saves much water and creates a more pleasant and cleaner environment for toilet users.

Let's end the battle and no more fights on the topic of toilet seat up or down...forever!

Urinals are bad for splashback (all over the trousers). Stick to a sit-down wee, even Taiwan's environment minister agrees.

Think you'll find the idea is that most blokes have to stand six or seven inches back from it.

Sunderland fans?

it's where the mountains stick up off the page

That's pretty good. Could that somehow be built into the urinal? Then you could piss all over Leeds, say.

That picture looks like a lot of fun. Where was it taken?

Back to the issue in hand, I'd get in touch with my gripper but I only get one every six months. In answer to your other question, they only use DMUs out of Marylebone.

The problem this time was probably a suspect linkage because it didn't affect all units, only the rear one, whereas previously everyone on the train had to grope in the dark. That might have been due to a new driver where, as part of the Chiltern Railways 'initiation ritual', his cohorts mislabel the cab controls for him!

Hello Gricer, I hope you are well, haven't seen you for a while.

You know more than anyone about trains, n'est-ce pas? I'd appreciate some advice.

One evening a couple of weeks ago, I had settled into my seat, Sudoku sitting on my lap, my pen in hand, as we pulled out of Marylebone Station. Suddenly all the carriage lights went out, and stayed out for the entire journey.

Then yesterday (Friday), bugger me but it happened again, just as we were slipping into the tunnel. I've never experienced this before, now it's happened twice in two weeks.

So my question is, what can one do to alert the driver in such circumstances? Do you think that he has accidentally flicked the wrong switch, or is something more sinister afoot?

Hi DS,

Well, as much as I never pass up the opportunity to talk with gusto about "pantographs" and "third rails", the technical reasons for the interruptions in power supply that you experienced are manifest and I wouldn't be able to do the subject justice without incurring the wrath of all the normals who frequent these pages.

In the meantime, here's a pic I took on a recent bashing expedition. Note: These people are definitely not normals.



By the way, was it a juicebox or a kettle? And why didn't you ask the gripper?

I prefer it to Sloppy Giuseppe

He? Are you under the impression I'm some kind of batty boy?

Hi DS

Indeed, the wife has one upstairs. I wash my hair in it when I cant be bothered to take a shower.

Oh, I see I'm preaching to the converted so to speak!

Let us know how you get on. The last time I had a wet room was staying at a hotel in Linköpping, which didn't have a stall. I'm sure there was a reason for that, so beware, consider all the angles.

[hyperD]

Because there's nothing sexier to women than a flacid penis passing urine.

What is it with you and wanking horses off?!?!?!?

Hello Malc!

I haven't got a urinal, but if I had enough spare room in my salle de bain I'd install a bidet instead. Have you considered one of those? After a Number Two it would make sure you were 'freshened up down there' and thoroughly de-clinkered in a way that even copious amounts of loo roll can never quite do.

My uncle Les and auntie Eve in Worcestershire had one. However, I never partook, and so I'm not sure of the drying protocol.

Ahhh... reminds me of my youth days
