See <a href="http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/tourists-neglected-as-5-automated-toilets-shut-1-3525765" rel="nofollow">http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/tourists-neglected-as-5-automated-toilets-shut-1-3525765</a></p> <p>I'd hope you would join me in writing to your councillors to try and reverse this and get more funding for the disappearing traditional public toilets across the city. </p> <p>When you compare us to East Lothian where every small town has an immaculate toilet with long opening hours, 24h disabled access and usually an attendant, it seems Edinburgh is in the dark ages. It certainly makes it a less appealing place for people cycling when you can't stop to use the loo. </p>
