to have taken the toilet seat?

[BadDayAtTheOrifice]

Travelling on the motorway today and stopped at a petrol station. I went round the side of the garage for a crafty fag and found a new toilet seat, still in its box. It looked like it had been dumped there. WIBU to chuck it in the boot and bring it home? DP says I was, I think I am recycling.

Is it soft-close?

YABU. The poor workman who spent 3 hours today searching for it (after he stored it safely round the back of the loos) probably also thinks YWVU.

hmm lovely find

Mmmm, dunno. Its still in the boot. I doubbt it though as its wooden.

I would have totally recycled that. You're doing the world a huge favour. Bravo!

I could ebay it?

Not soft-close = YABU. You're just perpetuating the existence of these abominations.

Wooden toilet seats are vile therefore yabu.

DP says I stole it. I think I've saved it from landfill.

A cigarette at the side of a petrol station? Lucky you didn't blow everyone up. And yes, yabu, it's stealing.

do you need a toilet seat?

It's the old one just revealed in the box the new one came in

Oooh stinky!!!

I rather hope when you get it out of the box it is the old one in the new box - would serve you right

You have no idea who put it there or why. Stealing is stealing.

Revealed??? Resealed!!!!

Do you have a need for a toilet seat or did you just "save2 it for the sake of it?

You stole it really.....

X post!!!

YABU
It wasn't yours to take

Have you checked it's the new one!

I didn't need it. Pure greed drove me to it. and 4 glasses of wine

So, today when I was out, i'd been to the next sale, bought myself a nice new toilet seat, a wooden one, driving home, I stopped at the services for a crafty cig, toilet seat was on my handbag so I just lent it up against the wall out the way, had my fag- the last one so and went round and bought some more and when I came back some barstward had taken it.

My nice new seat, i'd spent ages choosing that, saving for it. Have people no morals?!

A purely opportunistic crime and its now dawning on me will all be on CCTV somewhere.....

Are you my dad? Seriously? Cos he came home with a loo cistern lid, the wrong size, in green their loo is pink the other day to 'replace the one they have', was wondering if someone somewhere is trying to shift a whole set?

It was probably a bad idea to take it, what did you plan to do with it once you got it home, exactly?

remembering student days when I would wake up with a for sale sign, or a traffic cone, or one of those flasing lights or a pot plant from the bank thats foyer you could open with your card. all regretted, its just more crap that you have to dispose of.

Err, it's technically theft by finding. Plenty of CCTV eh? Oops!

I'm more bothered by your assumption that a petrol station was an appropriate place to have a fag break than I am by the liberation of the lavvy seat.
