It was proper solid too, he put a rock on it and it didn't squash!!

I would estimate it was 10 to 12 inches long, unfortunatly I did not have a ruler with me
How heavy was the rock?

I suppose it wasn't really rock, a large stone though. I would estimate its dimensions to be roughly 18 by 10 by 3 (all in inches)
We had been hiking for about a month and our diet had caused us to all have very solid jobbies

Hmmm... either that or his fudge had been tightly packed. No wonder given those dimensions. But hiking does make one lonesome, especially on Brokeback mountain.

Bet Brian comes on this thread now. The wonders of search technology.

Default those taps - in less PC times would be named - A bit gay

It's those ones which you push down with one hand whilst trying to wash the other in a style not unlike a naked Sooty show, they have similar ones in Tunnels, BUT, you push the tap, and the pipes make a great trombone - like farty sound - so, although this style of taps is pretty crap for washing hands, with the right - or wrong plumbing, they can be made into instruments Thomas Truax would be proud of.
And for the record I am NOT from Peterheid, but it must be said that the toilet of a place does have pretty good toilets, great taps, soap, hot AND cold running water and hot air dryers that deliver a speedy service.The downside is that a toughnut gaylord called Snakey allegedly tried to rape young men in them, BUT, he did, allegedly, offer £50 if they did a number two on his glass topped coffee table, perhaps he could be booked to perform in the bar, all proceeds going to better lighting and hygiene facilities, after all, pissy thumprints on a pint glass may be a selling point to some, but not the majority.
Och me, I could speak shite a day, but I am going on a mission to find a white dog shite and stick a wooden or paper lollipop stick in it, to rekindle those 1970s memories of hot summers and Mr Ben, when piss and shit on yer hands were the least of your worries and the thought of adults paying 2 and six to have their arse spanked with a slipper would have seemed unbelievable, considering Denis the menace frequently got it for free.

Can't not reply on a topic that involves handwashing and cleanliness. I am not Miss O.C.D but just have high standards and rightly so.....I'd just like to add to this chat that it's so refreshing to hear A GUY harp on about hand washing considering most GUYS don't wash their hands/or don't really bother with it. So go Biz for being a handwasher.........

I'd add that there should be hot water to wash mitts with and liquid soap in dispensers cos those wee bars just pick up germs/ are unhygienic/naff to handle.
No germs in me!!!

Oh....and before someone calls me sexist or whatever...there's plenty skanky lassies that don't wash their hands after toilet use too and it's pure minging............

How can soap be unhygenic?

Soap dispensers get booted off the wall and cause a slip hazard, as well as leaving unsightly holes in the wall.

Just be grateful for the mirror...

If you have a pee with the cubicle door open (as I checked out today), it is now possible to see yourself in the mirror too (if you're into that sort of thing of course lol).

Just to clarfiy, the sinks (ladies and gents) do each have hot and cold water intakes and are operated through a mixer system at the tap-end. Unfortunately the hot water tank is sited in the cellar resulting in the flow-rate being somewhat less than that of the cold water. We could fit a pump to the hot water supply, but then we'd run the risk of everyone burning their hands . I'll have a chat to out plumber nevertheless and see if there's a way forward.

Forsythia- re soap dispensers and in addition to what Flash has said already, here's a very scary statistic for you. In the two years that we had the bar, prior to it and the loos' refit, the soap dispenser cartridge in the gents was changed twice, and the one in the ladies only once!!!
