Don't pubs and supermarkets have toilets?

they do as you know, when the supermarket closes at 10 pm? you want to fight your way through a packed pub/nightclub ?

We have 24 hour supermarkets here. Not all pubs are in city centers.
There always seems to be problems around Heathrow. There is a 24 hour Tesco at junction 3 of the M4 and many pubs on the roads nearby. There are mcdonalds nearby and garages that have toilets. it isn't that difficult to find a toilet if you are minded to do so.


Most supermarkets close their toilets at nights.

Most of the stores I've been into at night (Tesco and ASDA) don't have the toilets open after 10pm. They don't have a full compliment of staff on at night. There's a sign up at all of them round here saying the toilets will be locked at a certain time.

Mixed bag down here, I suspect the ones that close their toilets do so because of the grief they get from the late night scum trade.
