Although when I think of some of the accessible WCs I've been in they don't quite meet that criteria!alhihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17874650104335249662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34940564.post-79780368724689134102009-09-21T12:32:20.125+01:002009-09-21T12:32:20.125+01:00@ alhi

But I don't think this is strictly enforced.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06148992289166413933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34940564.post-27087682117928891512009-09-19T20:54:40.656+01:002009-09-19T20:54:40.656+01:00im not so lucky at the moment havent used an outsi...im not so lucky at the moment havent used an outside loo in a while. got pots and cant sit up for long. something to look forward to when i can!!!emhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14196652412958890367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34940564.post-5725925122090250112009-09-18T17:12:23.557+01:002009-09-18T17:12:23.557+01:00Can anyone tell me why the sinks in disabled toile...Can anyone tell me why the sinks in disabled toilets are those horrible little tiny things? I realise if you use a wheelchair you may not be able to lean over a huge bathlike thing without soaking yourself but is there nothing in between thimble size and bath tub?alhihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17874650104335249662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34940564.post-40886212917469544752009-09-18T15:46:55.346+01:002009-09-18T15:46:55.346+01:00laughing at crass jokes in previous comment - than...laughing at crass jokes in previous comment - thank you Lceel a much need smile today.<br /><br />Your obsession with toilets is becoming compulsive BG! I find myself noticing ridiculous details in the finish and arrangements of disabled loos these days, it is catching! One in a local McDonalds which has just been refurbished had a seat so high I couldn't believe it. I know I am short but lifting oneself from a wheelchair up and onto the throne would have been impossible also. When I had finally accomplished the deed I realised a giant had designed/built the loo as the side rails were so far away I couldn't reach them to help me off my perch. Really hurt myself in actual fact but was having a non assertive day & didn't want to complain in public about the experience. Anyhow its so much better to come and do it here, except I don't have a camera on my phone!<br /><br />Am loving the latest examples of 'trying too hard' on the design elements & missing the point of accessibility in the meantime.<br /><br />Perhaps an easy way to complain to the establishments concerned would be via email with a link to your blog!<br /><br />Keep up the good work!Acheloishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13489197508242501952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34940564.post-52013088315318963432009-09-18T14:44:10.113+01:002009-09-18T14:44:10.113+01:00Is it just me, or does anybody else complain about...Is it just me, or does anybody else complain about the use of the word 'loo'. Well, not COMPLAIN, really, but it's just that my commonly used name is LOU. On the other hand, i suppose I should count myself lucky that my name isn't John Crapper.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13024392628362568010noreply@blogger.com
