I did hesitate on this Brian. You do find interesting shots to take.

Thanks, Glenn. There is always a queue there. I hope I never have to stand in it.

Nice one Brian , it appears to be a mixed queue? I was only thinking the other day rushing to a similar looking loo, I am glad I don't have to join a long queue which was outside the ladies. Good bladder training I'd say, or not as the case may be.

Thanks, Julian. Yes, the beach bogs are for either gender or both. I think.

Some are heading home, deciding it might be faster. I like this very much Brian.

The funny thing is, Tom, that few if any of the people in the picture are locals. Huntington Beach on warm day draws a crowd from inland communities near and far. So, the wait for the loo might take a while, but it is probably faster (marginally at least) than the 15 0r 20 mile drive home many of these folks face. Thanks for the comments, Tom.

The cue for toilets when women are involved. One of life's great mysteries that will only be cracked after we discover the unified theory for the universe, such complicated creatures women are, and simple creatures us men are.

I was going to call it a crap picture...but thought better of it

Maybe most men don't wash their hands

Oh dear...I have a sinking feeling that we'll soon be flushing out all the theories.

Thanks, Chris. much appreciated.

 

[Pete Askew]

Love the furtive guy beside the building and, as Chris notes, a great observational shot. And speaking of observational, complete with DSG!

 

[Brian Moore]

Thanks, Pete. (Those damn DSGs are everywhere!)
