Blue Moon

They say you shouldn't go grocery shopping on an empty stomach, but what about a full bladder? That was the conundrum I was faced with this afternoon when visiting my local Surry Hills Shopping Village (corner Baptist and Cleveland st).

There is nothing like being greeted by a sunny urine yellow door on your way to the pisser to make you need to go more...

The facilities here are basic, simple and generally clean. No problems with flushes, toilet paper is handy and spare rolls are tucked nicely in vertical cylindrically shaped dispensers.

The ambiance of this public toilet is nicely accented by a blue fluorescent light giving off the air of a junkie's blue light disco.

I have always been able to see my veins under a blue light because they are so pronounced. I even got complimented at school once by a depressive 'cutter' that I had "very slit-able wrists" - shout out to Leonard Cohen and his wrist slit-able songs!

But enough about that... The atmosphere in the washroom was basic, mirrors, hand dryers, ample soap and a disturbing sign reading "This area is monitored by video security at all times" which made me chicken out of photographing the sign, but, made me feel slightly less like I was going to get raped.

Ambiance: 5/10

Cubicle: blue/10

Paper towels vs. Hand dryer: Hand dryer

Cleanliness: the type of 'clean' feeling you get after someone has cleaned a murder scene 3.4/10

When you would use these toilets: for a toilet break between shopping at Baker's Delight and Coles; when the toilets at the Norfolk and surrounding pubs are full; pit stop during shopping for wankery on nearby Crown and Cleveland st.
