True enough!
I'm not so much into the humiliation of a man pissing his pants in public, but the desperation is ace:)

Re: Putting yourself in desperate situations
On occasion, I do - but in public I don't plan on wetting myself. I might tank up and skip a toilet break, but I would plan the desperation in such a way to give myself some room for error, or at least some way of escaping midway if I find that I cannot reach my destination dry.
When I am alone at home, it can be another story.

Completely agree, when in public, allow a 'way-out', just in case!googlism2008 wrote: ↑04 Mar 2023, 18:25On occasion, I do - but in public I don't plan on wetting myself.

That's why I'm a bit nervous about the Underground idea. I don't know the system well enough to know where toilets are!

There aren’t any toilets on the platforms!! That’s why you see lads getting caught out after a few beers at football games!!briefs wrote: ↑04 Mar 2023, 18:51Completely agree, when in public, allow a 'way-out', just in case!googlism2008 wrote: ↑04 Mar 2023, 18:25On occasion, I do - but in public I don't plan on wetting myself.

Nor do I know where there are toilets close to stations etc

Re: Putting yourself in desperate situations
And, unless it has changed, British Rail (as was) liked to charge for the toilet facilities - especially at Charing Cross mainline station, 50p if I recall correctly (no toilets at Embankment).

Re: Putting yourself in desperate situations
The charges were scrapped a couple of years ago. All mainline station toilets are now free.

Re: Putting yourself in desperate situations
Lee, do any Underground stations have toilets these days?
With regards to the Wembley line, which route would you say is the best? Somewhere such as Paddington to Wembley maybe?

Re: Putting yourself in desperate situations
The Metropolitan Line from Baker Street to Wembley Park stops just once, at Finchley Road, but there is a long stretch between Finchley Road and Wembley Park, where the train goes non stop through about four or five stations! It takes ages and must be sheer torture for a bursting lad who keeps seeing stations whizz past without the train stopping.
Then, because Wembley is so busy on match days, there is invariably a delay outside Wembley Park as the tube train waits for an available platform as it takes so long for the packed trains to empty out.
Can be fun watching … if you don’t need to go yourself!!
I don’t know of any stations where there are toilets on the platform. I’m sure some stations have facilities upstairs, but I wouldn’t have a clue which ones.
