public toilet POI

When I contacted them about a year ago asking if they had considered releasing their data as a POI for satnavs they replied that they had not found any company willing to purchase the data for that purpose.

No harm in trying for a tie up with this site, if they haven't sold the data in more than a year they are unlikely to do so in the current climate.

Looks as if it would be a very popular POI group. It has attracted 1684 (and counting) views; many more than lots of other posts.

I wonder if we couldn't get group collaboration via the 'Submit POI' function? It only need to be set-up to take the new POI set.

Definitely a good idea! But it does conjure up a picture of police investigating reports of people in cars with PGPSW stickers in their windows loitering outside toilets ("I was just inputting coordinates into my satnav, officer"). Smile

We're up to 262, but I can only visit so many at my age. Wink

I thought after I posted that that one of you "boys" would have to comment! Wink

I was going to suggest after 253 told us about his prostate trouble earlier that he should change his sig from

To be,
or not to
Be Bop A Lu La

to

To pee,
or not to
Pee Bog A Loo Lav

but I decided it would be in poor taste! Shocked

I have submitted the ones local to me.

Did have a bit of trouble locating the correct section, looked under Attraction, Entertainment, Public service building, Recreation & Special interest before eventually finding it under Community. Wink

Didn't submit the location of the back doorway to a local pizza takeaway even though it is often used for this purpose. Stop!

I've just submitted five, but with equal trouble doing the category I sent the first one in as Accommodation Agrriturismo or something. I've done a Remove request for it and submitted the toilet correctly.
