The Pye one wasn’t far from home there Dave, think they’re based on the ‘Dad’s Army’ industrial estate in Wem. I only ever went to those toilets at Midway once (the old toilets that is) and after briefly reading the graffiti on the walls I couldn’t get out of there quick enough. I’d rather warm my legs than walk in there again!
