In Scotland, if someone knocks on your door and needs to use your toilet, you are legally obliged to give them access to it.
Thoughts?

I don't know...I guess there aren't many public toilets in Scottieland Laughing
I dont know if this is a fact, or just obscure old law that no longer holds any weight.

I didn't know this, what a stupid legal thing. If I had to I'd have to do it but I'd accompany them upstairs to check they didn't rob me blind.

Hmmm didn't know that. Legally obliged or not, i wouldn't let just anybody in to use the toilet. What? Laughing There are many stupid laws in the UK it seems.

Just don't use that (not very clean) toilet from the film Trainspotting. Repuke

Once I rang a doorbell in Germany to ask for using the toilet and the woman denied. So I had touse her garden.... So I guess it would have been better for her to let me in.

it is a good law. but is such a law necessary? does such behaviour not come under basic human decency?

femalemarthaluv | 24 March 2008 - 11:56am

Seriously? I wish I'd known that when I lived there Very happy

it's a good and a bad law at the same time..i mean good in the way that if there really aren't any other toilets nearby,only in homes..but bad cause of the robbery thing..it's a silly law though Razz
