What is it with public toilets? I once went to a nice cafe in Paris, but it had a hole in the ground (it was called, I think, a Turkish toilet). In Costa Rica, I twice found toilets with no seats, one in a restaurant. My opinion: Public potties shouldn’t be an adventure to use.
There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed.
