Hi All I went out on Saturday in the city for a meal and a few drinks. Other than visiting the gym urinals with success, I haven't really put myself to the test since the workshop so I was as anxious as hell about the whole thing!! We went to a quiet, relaxed and sort of hippy ish kind of place to put my new found bravery to the test. It was fairly quiet, despite being a Saturday night in the City. After a couple of glasses of wine and a pint of water (necked down as soon as possible) with my meal, I got the urge. I went to the toilets and aaaarrrgh! just a trough, not done this before!!! Anyway, no-one else was in there so I pee'd staight away with someone joining me mid-flow Went again about 15 minutes later but, this time, someone was already mid- flow. Not wanting to bail out and use the cubicle, I just stood at the trough to see waht would happen. At this point though, I completely lost the urge . The guy seemed to take ages, and I stood there for about 40 seconds just waiting (doing my breathing excersises I might add). Anyway, he left eventually and, about 10 seconds later I started peeing. Went again about 20 minutes later with no-one there but someone joining me mid-flow. Oh, by the way, I noted that, on the 2 occasions where I was joined mid- flow, they stood the other end of the trough....toilet etiquette is amazing!!! On Sunday, we all went swimming to the local pool. About halfway through the swim I went to the poolside toilets, there are 3 urinals with no dividers. I had a slight hesitation but managed just fine. No others present. So, altogther a good weekend with positive experiences Pete
