A pub not far from me has been shut for a while but has recently been taken over by new owners. The local newspaper has done a story on the reopening and the work that had been done on the building. I was having a read through it earlier today and it all looked good, fresh cooked stone baked pizza and plans for a nice restaurant etc, until I got to the section on the refurbishment of the toilets. They now have a "gender-fluid boudoir" instead of toilets. I'm not sure I even know what a gender-fluid boudoir is, but I definitely know that the sort of place that has one isn't the sort of place that I want to visit.
I went to a restaurant that had non-gendered toilets a short while back. All it really meant was there were no urinals, just a bunch of a cubicles and then the sinks outside. Still felt a bit odd walking into a toilet and seeing a bunch of ladies there washing their hands and stuff though. That said, I've no idea would the 'boudoir' part implies. The only time I ever hear that word it's preceded by the word 'tarts' as a disparaging phrase!

Massive overreactions from people at work. :rolleyes: An architect says they didn't receive a notification of something. Project director then emails me to say can come into the office EVERY DAY next week to make sure the system is working. What the hell?? It's working fine, the architect is probably just lying or incapable of checking his emails.

The cheeky beggers expect you to go to work every day? Anyone would think they were paying you or something! ;)

Perfectly capable of doing my work from here thanks! Sod going back to the daily grind on the tubes every day, I'm trying to avoid that for as long possible.

Son's girlfriend passed her test, first time, at 8:30 this morning in Glasgow, going to get a wee car to get to her assignments for Uni, she is doing Veterinary studies, wonder if it might cut down some of my chauffeuring duties too !
