Unfortunately, the blowers in the gents only run for 5 seconds or less and then are very difficult to start again. AT NO POINT do they get remotely hot or even warm!!

But they are environmentally friendly........they keep the lecky bill down!

This has been known for quite some time.
I take wet wipes with me to use after visiting the toilet.......I usually use paper towels(these are far more hygienic)...or if there are no paper towels I usually have a paper napkin in my handbag.
