It would seem to make sense, as would not taking on board large amounts of fluid before heading outdoors for several hours. However, we need to cover these important angles. Have any planners planned in 'tampon breaks' for female members on the blob? I imagine they'd need to know full details of their menstrual cycle such as 'heavy', 'light' or 'intermittent'. Maybe they could do a resiliency test on leading female sanitary products, and plan walks around how absorbant each one is?DGP1 wrote:I personally plan my meals around work, never have something that is going to need 'evacuated' several times at very short notice the next day.Lager Chimp wrote:Just a question.

In Scotland, if someone knocks on your door and requires the use of your toilet, you must let them enter.
Apparently though, it's legal for a male to urinate in public, so long as it is on the rear wheel of his motor vehicle, and his right hand is on the vehicle. I think the keywords there are HIS vehicle...

they dont have to plan like that
they do however have to plan for the eventuality on every duty
and thus state where its possible for a delivery postie to take a toilet break
whether its on the duty or X distance from it

Re: Toilet break
