WHOEVER rated Oxford’s public toilets the best in the country (Flush of Success, December 15) clearly didn’t visit Gloucester Green at 7am on Thursday.

Only one of the toilets was open.

The bowl was liberally smeared with last night’s deposits, there was no paper, and the flush was broken.

If this is platinum grade I hate to think what the bog-standard average is like.
