PLEASE DON’T USE THE DISABLED TOILETS!

That is, if you don’t have to.

The reason why I ask this is simple.

Earlier on, I went to the toilets (our bodies don’t allow us to hold it and you know what I’m referring to!) only to realise all three disabled toilets in the Brent Civic CentrE were occupied.

So I went to use one of the female toilets in the section that’s not for disabled people.

When I tried to get out I found that I couldn’t get the door to open.

That’s why the disabled toilets have a wide door opener/closure.

Needless to say, the normal toilet cubicles don’t.

I had to wait at least seven minutes, until someone outside heard my screams and kindly pushed the outside of the cubicle door inwards, in order for me to get out.

This is embarrassing for me to write but necessary.

Please, I can assure you, if I could use the able-bodied toilets, I would – but I can’t.

People can be rude about seeing a non-wheel chaired person using a disabled facility but I can assure you, we do need them.

So without this turning into a lecture, please use the able-bodied facilities, when applicable.

Also, please be aware that the disabled toilets shouldn't be seen as replacement for doing your ones or twos, as remember, when you have finished, we disabled users have no choice but to breathe it all in - yuck!

I also want to say, congratulations Manchester City on winning the England and Wales premiership league title.

I have to admit, I wanted Liverpool FC to win it, as I would of liked to say Chelsea FC had beaten the winners, and I would of liked to see Manchester United FC loose their domination in the same league, but I'm not bitter.


Kind regards
