Aaaargh, a sanitary bin bit my bum!


Today I feel a need to rant about toilets. Well not actually toilets more like small cubicles and large sanitary bins.

I took this picture of the toilets in the local Cineworld cinema. I headed for a quick tinkle, only to find that part of my arse (a proper ladies' bum, in that I have Marilyn Monroe-esque curves) ended grazing the not-so-sanitary sanitary bin.

Now I realise that the cinema wanted to help us ladies out from queuing whilst desperate by squashing 3 toilets into a space that should only have had 2, but if you are going to do that please invest in some smaller bins, because, as you can see from the photos, the bin's lid is actually over the edge of the toilet seat, so even ladies without a Monroe bottom would have the same problem.

Apart from it not being a comfy thing to do, the health/germ implications of sitting on a sanitary bin edge makes me cringe!


You may think I'm just having a rant about a local issue, but no, this has happened a lot recently in quite a few motorway services, a couple of theatres and a library!

So I am putting this out to the universe…….


If you make sanitary bins, could you please make a narrower version, or why not make a C shaped one that curves round the bowl to help us out.

Thanks for reading, and if you've had this same problem please leave me a comment below, or why not name and shame a bum pinching venue if there is one near you.

If enough people have this problem maybe we can make one of the big sani-bin firms listen.
