I’m on record here that I used to enjoy going for a dump in a fully enclosed wheelchair loo Door to ceiling doors and walls, on a high floor away from actual wheelchair users the hotel suite of toilets, taking my clothes off to my underwear and relaxing over a nice poo, getting dressed again and going about my business.
I also once spent a week in a hotel in Chicago with one of these loos. It was heated and oscillated/pulsated with different angles of attack and pressure. Then it dried. Leaving it behind was leaving the future behind.
Decent crowd around especially for a Thursday. I had a quick browse around some of the shops before I settled to have a Hot Chocolate in Starbucks. I also took this time to have a look at the days racing in Clonmel and in England picked out a Lucky 15 for the day. No joy on the Lucky 15
Before getting back to the shopping which was the whole point of going to Kildare Village, I headed towards the toilets to go for a dump. The overall experience was very pleasant. The gap between the cubicle door and the floor was minimal. Toilets were spotless. The Molton Brown Hand Wash was a nice touch. Paper Towels for hand drying instead of those Electric hand dryers. If you aren’t in a rush and are passing by on the motorway I’d say treat yourself and call in to use the facilities. You’d won’t be disappointed. (Unless you need to use the ladies for which there was a bit of a queue forming)
I then proceeded on my way to the various outlet stores to spend my hard earned/ fixed match earned euros on some items of clothing that I will get great wear out of over the coming weeks at various social events such as Christmas parties etc. I passed on the Calvin Klein jocks. 2 pairs for 27 euro FFS.
Once I was happy with my days shopping I left Kildare Village and proceeded to head in the direction for home. I made a stop at Junction 14 Mayfield to fill the car with petrol and get myself a bottle of water and a packet of chewing gum. However, before getting these items I felt it was my duty to sample the facilities on offer at Junction 14. After the experience in Kildare Village my expectations were high but this optimism was short lived. I only needed a hit n miss this time around so I followed toilet etiquette and took position so I kept at least 1 urinal free either side of me so I wouldn’t be standing next to someone else. This proved to be a complete waste of time as some thick cunt stood in beside me as I was mid piss. I then stepped over the small puddle which was forming in the middle of the floor to head to the sinks to wash my hands. No Molton Brown this time around. Electric Hand Driers in use here. Overall not a great experience. I had a quick look at the toilets and they didn’t look great either. Empty toilet roll holders were visible.
I then got the aforementioned items and headed back to my vehicle before heading home.
