New toilet – but not as we know it
I am writing to the Observer this week to let you know a new toilet has been installed in Parkhurst Road.
Well it’s not a toilet as most citizens would recognise, it is a public use bench and a wheelie bin, though quite a few people that sit on it recently tend to like urinating on the bench and bin when they are full of alcohol.

I hope most would agree that this is unacceptable behaviour. So how can this be remedied?
Perhaps Police could intervene when asked, or take the bench away, or maybe CCTV could be set up with Parkhurst Road within its surveillance area.
Perhaps Sussex Police or the Local Authority would like to respond to my letter.

I was under the impression that urinating in public was a criminal offence!
