imi Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 From a bar/clubs point of view, it means less likely the cubicles will get blocked by morons with loadsa bog roll, urinals don't get kicked off the wall by same morons, less mess & a less likey stage for a quick stabbing, so they can't lose. This is'nt a new phenomenon in London they've been around for many years. In London typically you pay £20 to enter a club.....another 10 per drink...so paying a pound to pee is hardly going to hit my pocket hard. Like Mr Black says.....they do a lot of good too....and if they do their job well, then its a pound worthwhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackie Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I remember my mum paying 2P in Waterloo station for me to have a pee, not the same but i had to share Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 They remind me of the guys selling the watches abroad. It seems they speak very little english and even though they are only there to make money, they are very persistant about making it. Up here they stare at you constantly while you pee, they then sing a chant like "freshen up, you got to freshen up, don't you know freshen up" yadda yadda...., hand you a towel and expect a quid. I leave them wanting every single time unless i actually want some of their aftershave, in that instance i always give them a quid. Bloody expensive aftershave Scott =op Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 If you go somewhere that costs you to get in, is expensive once inside and has people trying to fleece you even when you only need a p155 then, TBH, you deserve it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feakins Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Our guy in the local Weatherspoons sings.. "FRESSSHENNNN UP FORR THE PUNNNANNNIIIIIII" Funny at first but every week is a bit much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Wow this is an interesting thread! The local Feshen up blokes In Weymouth are like celebrity's. Everywhere they are you'll get some dumbass shouting "Freshen up for the punani"! I swear if i hear "You touch it, you wash it" in the back of my ear one more time when im at a urinal then they will regret it. On another note though, the club i see this bloke at the most is told by the management that to work in there he has to keep the toilets clean. I would have to say that he keeps them very clean, he mops, changes bog roll and even polishs the mirrors! "No spray, no lay" Aiyyyeeee:rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chrism Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Freshen up for the ladies !! I'd always assumed that phrase was one that was used in Dundee alone. They must all have got the same diploma in "how to rob drunk people the legal way" from the open university! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian R Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Ahh yes every where has one now in the Midlands Aftershave Dave as we call 'em. How long before they move from the bog paper to eau de toillette LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lbm Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 As has been said, they've been around the London area for a few years now. I personally found a quick chat to the guy and saying that I'm here all evening, so I'll sort you out later works nicely. You're not going to pay £1 every time you pee. Whether or not during my last visit I pay the man is of course another question. Perhaps it's a British thing feeling obliged to pay or a bit guilty if you don't.

Chewie Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 This is a weird thread. It's only a big deal if you make it one. It's easy. Just say no thank you. Would it make easier for you if the bog fairy was a white dude? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Always wondered if they have birds in the ladies doing the same thing. My bird tells me not, wonder why that is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMAO!!! Same here in Leicester..they all say it! :d:d:d I refuse to give any money though...you pay a premium to buy the stuff from the bar, I'll be damned if I am paying to get it out too!

mr keef Posted January 20, 2008 Author Share Posted January 20, 2008 This is in normal bars though..not just nightclubs...if your bursting for a pony and you enter 3 toilets with no paper inside..then you look over at the bog fairy, and under his stool there is a mountain of rolls then that annoys me...from what i have seen in newcastle anyway...there is fights and shouting because people just want to go use the toilete,wash there hands,and be out..simple as that.not pay for it ffs..if i paid 20 quid to enter a pub then another 5 or 10 for a drink then went to the toilete and had to pay there i would flip...next there will be a tariff...;)2 quid after 12 oclock guys 3 pound for a pony:tongue: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wondered how long before the race card came out (longer than expected) It's not racist, it just so happens that they are black guys (in all instances that I have seen anyway) It doesn't matter what their skin colour is, it's just bloody annoying...being expected to pay for a "P" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ On a lighter note, I had to laugh the other week...some guy came out of one of the traps and was really upset saying to the chap in the toilet "eh mate...come here, there is something wrong with this bog", so he goes in and takes a look.."whats wrong with it"..."well just look at it...how the hell can I do a line off of that" Not that I agree with drug taking but it made me smile at the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJ Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I have never experienced this either (probably due to the type of places an old git like me would frequent) and the chance of it happening out here on Kos is pretty slim! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
