festivals
You are a rock goddess. You love your music and enjoy it all the more when it is live. Your friends are all booked to go to Glastonbury or Electric Picnic or even Burning Man. But...
Do you physically shrink from experiencing a summer music festivals because of your fear of the dreaded toilet facilities. Are the horror stories you have heard a myth or reality?
All of us, regardless of gender, have to answer the call of nature and none can honestly say that festival loos are the most pleasant of places. It makes sense to stay out of them as much as possible over the course of a 3 day music festival.
Here are some of the various festivals solutions you might experience.
- Portaloos
Portaloos are the most common toilet at festivals. And they are a fine solution especially if they have been treated with respect by the hundreds of people who have shared each one preceding you. Portaloos are lockable & so your privacy is protected. This is a major plus for the rock festival goddess.
Portaloos also flush too which helps keep them relatively clean. Of course you depend on previous user to do so & to leave the seat back down. Once in the portaloo you are confined by four walls which can be quite claustrophobic. There is also the problem of smell.
Combine this tight, plastic space with sunny weather and you will be eager to finish as quickly as possible. You might even try the old holding your breath trick. Hold your breath before entering and your next inhalation is when you are outside again. You need to be fit & fast for this one to work.
