AFAIK, the Timmy has 10 toilets for it's pax load of 260 (ish). If they go U/S they have to reduce the number of pax, so there is obviously a rule on pax / toilet ratio. Surely the rule is the same on the ground?

Or are we being naive here because the airbridge is part of an Op so the monkeys at the top can gleefully throw the rule book out with the cheque book?

Perhaps it's contraversial, but since the Army are the biggest users of the facility, and no doubt far better qualified at building things than the RAF, why don't THEY do something about it?

Sod who's MEANT to be doing it, they're obviously not, so how about the users do the work and improve their lot from within?

What happened to the days of inginuity when we 'borrowed' things to create a decent environment for ourselves? One only has to look at the bars around FI to see what can be achieved if one has the will!
