Hehe, Jafo had best not get caught short on one of Melbourne's rail stations.... they got no flamin' toilets.

Yeah, I was reading this about ridiculous situation because the article says that police may be called to take railway security officers to the toilet.

A police escort eh?  Personally, I'm not that insecure and think I'd rather go alone.  Besides, I might get 'stage fright' if I have an armed officer looking over my shoulder.  Yup, the worry of his [or her, and that's something else to consider} taser going off halfway through would be so off-putting I'd freeze up and not be able to manage a drip.

As for the female officer looking over my shoulder while I took a leak, I'd likely get myself in big trouble because my irrepressible sassy nature would demand that I ask her to shake off the drips for me... and then I'd get first hand experience of what it feels like to get tasered

Seriously, I could understand no toilets on a station in the remotest parts of Africa or something, but Melbourne is not situated in a third-world country which has greater issues feeding its population than installing public toilets at rail and/or bus stations.

Oh well, if they don't want to go to the expense of building toilets at rail stations, they could always employ some plastic tubing and have special hollowed out compartments in the security officers shoes.
