Robin Would

Turns out it's not legal to pee in public in Nottingham, after all:
The signs, which were put up by pranksters in and around Nottingham, are designed to look official.

They feature a toilet sign and include the words: “Public Urination Permitted After 7.30pm”.

[…..]

The notice reads: “In an attempt to reduce late night public nuisance, during the holiday period, Nottingham City Council has designated several public urination areas across the city.

“This urination area will be cleaned daily between the hours of 5am and 6am.”
The story has gotten a fair amount of press, but I like to start with the version from Drink-soaked Trotskyite Popinjays for WAR, which includes a comparative reference to Scotland.
