I was thinking about this thread when I was out with the dogs. They have a favourite spot on particular walks...! Got me thinking of works toilets. Last place I worked (PFI Police building) was a charmless place at best. As we were there after normal office hours we had the run of the place effectively so the pick of the toilets. They were clean but very basic, oddly I got into the routine of using the same cubicle- though best avoided sometimes after some er..Officers Reply to this message | Report message

I used Tesco loo today. A bloke came out of the cubicle where I had heard him doing the paperwork so he must have been "using" it, and walked straight out without washing his hands. Now I'm not obsessive about that kind of thing but I do hope he wasn't then picking over the food I was just about to buy!! While I don't spend much time in them, it seems quite common (50/50) in pubs and restaurants for men to not wash their hands after a wee. I can believe the anecdotes about the snacks on the bar.

Whereas you would prefer that he got hold of the tap - soiled by the previous user - added some more soiling to the tap - washed his hands - turned the tap off - thoroughly mixing up some more soiling - wiped his hands on the disgusting towel - went out, grabbing the disgusting door handle with his soiled hand - thereby thoroughly mixing up every toilet users bacteria with his own? Hmmm? Should I go on? Perhaps he had just had a quick J Carrol ( tinyurl.com/sbctoex ) and was going to open the door with a piece of paper in his hand so that he didn't touch the handle and spread the germs in one of the most effective ways that it would be possible for mankind to devise.

I also think Duncan's got it right. What he said reminded me of reading Jack Kerouac's "Big Sur" many years ago. In one passage he rails against the American obsession with taking showers. He thought they'd be much cleaner if they made arrangements to wash their backsides after defecating, rather than waiting for a shower. Reply to this message | Report message

With the state of many of these bathrooms I think it's rather more important to wash your hands before you start handling anything you value. And who uses a public toilet for defecation anyway?

Dirty loos may be disgusting and unpleasant but they don’t really constitute much of a health risk. You don’t drink the water from the lavatory bowl or put your food on the toilet seat. At least I don’t. The major health risks are usually to be found in the kitchen in dirty and contaminated work surfaces and dish clothes and uncleaned refrigerators and the like. Always a bit wary of some people’s domestic arrangements and politely decline offers of refreshment. Pets on work surfaces are a major red light! Reply to this message | Report message

Anyway, they do say that a few germs are good for you to keep your immune system active A thought I comforted myself with every day on my trip around northern Vietnam earlier this year - the toilets in the rural eateries were er......rural. The ones in the Hotels and on the boat we sailed on were immaculate by any standard. The places we ate during the day and in the "home-stays" were rather dirty by my standards but it didn't stop me eating. I didn't suffer from any stomach problems, I think the home brew rice wine was a quite effective antiseptic... Last edited by: R.P. on Fri 20 Dec 19 at 11:44 Reply to this message | Report message

Not sure why so much concern about avoiding the toilet door handle. Surely it’s not going to be any worse than touching any other door handle, hand rail, money, chair etc which we all do dozens of times. The important thing is to keep the bacterial load on your hands as low as possible by washing them as frequently as possible with proper soap an water especially before eating . Dangling your fingers under the tap for three seconds doesn’t cut it! Reply to this message | Report message

Why is it that every toilet that I have ever been in has 'push' door handles going in, but pull door handles coming out? You can push the door open with your elbow, sleeve or shoulder going in, but coming out when one's hands might be soiled, one has to get hold of the door handles to pull them open. I always use a tissue or piece of kitchen towel to avoid touching the handle with my bare hands. Reply to this message | Report message

My pet hate in these places is the warm air dryers. They are either noisy (Dyson airblade type), which blots out my hearing, or ineffective, leaving you with warm wet hands. I'm sure they blow bacteria around the room. When I was working, the plant director at a famous British mineral water company told me that air dryers were prohibited in food packaging plants for this reason. Paper towels are best IMO.

A few years ago I went on an end of season rafting trip down the GC...16 days. A company called OARS operating out of Flagstaff....friends joked that I thought there was a W and an H missing which is why I went on the trip. Environmental concerns meant that all people take out ALL their rubbish. Pee in the river. Defecate in the groover, several of which, when full, are secured in the ‘trash’ raft. I used a nail brush, scrubbed vigorously both before and after ablutions, same with dining. Any backpacking trip I use the nail brush more than anything else in my gear list, then dispose of after every trip. Using public loos I go in n out of doors using my elbows.
