Coach desperation

Hi all. I've signed up onto this site with a false name specially to see if anyone has any bright answers to my question becasue its a bit embarrassing and i can't talk about it with anyone I know.


 - I'm 23 year oldgirl and in order to see my boyfriend at the weekends I have to make a long National express coach journey on a friday night. There is no option, I have to do it.


 I have a small bladder and I always need the toilet about an hour into the 2 and half hour journey and there are no stops. THe coach toilet ALWAYS seems to be out of order. I know now that I have to do something about it because last weekend I got so desperate that I had to wee into a water bottle - girls, I don't know if you've ever tried to do this on a coach. It went everywhere, made a loud noise, everyone looked and now I don't want to go on thsi coach again but have to.


In short - have to see my boyfriend, can't even nearly afford the train, can't drive, try to drink as little water as possible before going - still need to pee before 2 and a half hours.


Sorry this has been so long but PLEASE answer if you have a suggestion or an idea I haven't thought of. thank you.

I have found that adding two tablespoons to a glass of tomato juice proved to be very effective. It takes about a week or two to show results. I don't know if this olive oil is available in the U.S. but I would suggest you write to:

Dr. Egger

You could also phone him at: 972-4-9893477

or fax: 972-4-9891496

 

I can't help with dietery suggestions to keep your bladder under control, but as for the non operation of the coach toilets you need to be writing down every journey you make where the coach toilet isn't working and also the coach registration number. You then need to email

customer.relations@nationalexpess.com and complain, remembering to quote your ticket number in your email else they won't respond. I make numerous overnight (through-the-night) journeys on NX coaches and have never encountered a loo that's out of order. Coach toilets have come on leaps and bounds in recent years - they still smell sometimes (esp when it's hot) but are far more reliable. I suspect the driver is meant to have a short stop in a motorway service area for passengers on board a coach with no working toilet.
