Portacabins are crap

OK, I'll admit I've not been very active here of late, and I'll also admit that the title of this post is purely to arouse the wrath of an officious git, and hopefully lead to some entertaining correspondence.

Many years after his officiousness was first revealed.

Normal service will, I hope, be resumed relatively shortly.

  1. Welcome back, I look forward to reading about the 'entertaining' correspondence!

    Relatively shortly? Don't make it as long again.

  4. I'm not sure I like the "Portaloo" cubicle doors with those large slices cut out of them - anyone could look in!!

  5. To be fair (and boring), I think they have to make it look like they've made an attempt to protect their trademark from becoming genericised. That way they can prevent someone selling knock-off crap relocatable buildings using their name. It's pretty much enforced officiousness.

  6. Well by the look of it you didn't ruffle any feathers. You should see some of the correspondence I've had with them while I've been trying to promote our portable toilets!
