Some of them are so bad, I wouldn't be able to go there and would have to go home (if I could make it!) Like you said, you'd think they would maintain them to a reasonable standard. The worst I can recall are at the Church in Jewellery Quarter. Both doors had been kicked off, no paper and stunk. Like the Trainspotting toilet! As a man that has had similar issues for over 30 years, the Fridge club in Shrewsbury back end of the 80's, door hanging off, no toilet tissue, Los Angeles central station in 2006, similar tale and Double Down Saloon in Vegas, These are the 3 worst I have ever encountered. If caught and in the uk, a spoons toilet always affords me a lock and some bog roll. Edited October 2, 2016 by Seat68 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My ex used to insist we watch X-factor together and used to go in a right mood if I said I didn't want to watch. I mean, I would sit next to her on the sofa while she watched it but I would read a newspaper or magazine. Apparently that was "spiteful"! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Induction of Psycho-neuroses by Conditioned Reflex with Stress by proxy" sounds better. Put a claim in if you have suffered and it wasn't your fault.

Rodders Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 discovering a musical artist after he's died. Absurd to be annoyed about it, can still enjoy the music, but feels like I would have gotten into it more heavily when I was younger. ( Lou Reed fwiw ).

Still not the world's biggest Lou Reed fan, but I stumbled across 'Iced Honey' which he did with Metallica and I thought that was really good, really interesting. Picked up the album LuLu from that and it still get s a listen. I'm told it's not considered his finest! I guess my equivalent 'dead discovery' would be Johnny Cash. Listened to a couple of very late cd's he did on his 'American' series. Probably something like 'The Man Comes Around' and rediscovered him a bit and I've been working slowly backwards ever since. Happily though, I'm not a completist, so I'm happy to pick n mix my way through, not get too methodical. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lou Reed was definitely a rock god but I always found his albums somewhat patchy; the one exception was Magic and Loss which just totally blew me away.
