The use of cocaine in toilets
I can confirm that cocaine in Malta is in vogue.
This drug is being sniffed mostly in public conveniences, especially on toilet cisterns and the edges of dividers.
Health and safety authorities must focus on this subject.
Toilets should be fitted with high-speed fans mounted to the ceiling and divider edges should be tapered.
This way abusers will find it difficult to sniff cocaine!

It is disgusting when toilets are used for purposes other than the intended ones. Some even treat toilets as some sort of congregational social club. Nudge! Nudge! Wink! Wink!

I am old enough to remember that the only items that were used in a public toilet are water, soap and toilet tissues.....and drugs were never an option, but time and thing changes...and i am not sure if they changed for the better!

An easier way is to spray all surfaces with WD40

Just one or two design problems to iron-out, Oliver. But thanks very much. We'll be in touch.

I'm sure that if someone is prepared to sniff coke off the surface in a public convenience, cocaine will be the last of his problems.

High speed fans? Wouldn't that encourage addicts to hang around lavs standing on tip toe sniffing the air?
Pushers would start selling tickets.
