ok, i'm genuinely curious as to whether i was out of order or not...
picture the scene - very busy McDonalds restaurant on the A303 services. queue for the ladies' loo. disabled toilet and baby change next to the ladies' loo. me with ds with full nappy. disabled loo/baby change occupied so i wait until free. i have looked around and seen that there are no other people requiring wheelchair access/baby change facilities, just a line of ladies needing the loo so i head for the open door. lady with a little girl aged about 8 snaps, "We were here first!" so i said, "I'm sorry, i didn't realise she was still in nappies." Cue massive, sweary rant from her (in front of her daughter!! ) i said, "If you've got a problem then maybe you should speak to the manager," and nipped in and changed ds' bum.
was i being out of order? i thought that disabled/baby change facilities were there for the primary use of wheelchair users/people with babies! i mean, sure, if there's no-one else using the disabled loo and a long queue for the ladies' then nip in by all means, but i would always assume priority was given to the people who needed it the most? or was i wrong? argh! too much self-doubt!!
