I refer to the public toilet issue in Parkstone. We recently spent a short holiday at Hayling Island and visited a small shopping centre at Margam.

We parked at the car park, and lo and behold there were public toilets.

Seemingly fairly new, in excellent condition and well maintained, a notice on the wall proudly informed us “This facility is provided and maintained by Havant Borough Council”.

Poole claims to be a holiday destination, yet cannot provide adequate public toilets in a local shopping centre, shame on you Poole Borough Council.

Well done Havant Borough Council, we will certainly visit that shopping centre again, if we are in the area.
