A pity that information had not reached the station on 6 January.
Somebody might like to report completion of the work in this thread. I
shall ask Customer Services for more information.


I doubt Customer Services will give a crap.

Very drole?

This should arguable start another thread, but I have just got this from

I have just received a communication from the manager responsible and
wanted to update you on the issue you raised.

We do have plans to produce a piece of customer information - probably
a map, which will show toilet facilities on the Underground in more
detail. However this will be available on our website only (i.e. we
will not be printing it) from about April onwards.

I have started collecting detailed information on LU toilet facilities
while doing other work in London Underground.
http://www.tfl.gov.uk/assets/downloads/Getting_around_London.pdf has
the information iconically. I want to document the facilities.

At Totteridge and Whetstone on Sunday morning, "men" on northbound
platform 1 was shut. The station supervisor said customers could use
"women" on southbound platform 2 while the listed building containing
"men" was being repaired. No notice and YMMV.

In a probably futile attempt to avoid anyone else needing to add toilet
humour, I have this: one of my Civil Engineering lecturers used to say:
"It may be **** to you but it's my bread and butter".
