Near to create an inter-religious conflict...
one friend of me, entered in the men bathroom of City Center and saw the long pile/font...
he thought it was for men standing pee, so it was near to start peeing in that place but thanks to God, appeared a man that sit there in order to clean his feet for pray time... so he noticed it was not the right place.
Thanks to God, thanks to God...
he didnt started...
Im not such rich :-)
Technical Service of Nikon is there.
My little coolpix was out of order.
BTW: Finally fix it was more expensive than buy a new one. (little coolpix, around 350 QAR brand new - price to fix it 1.100 QAR) 8-O

is like fornication looking for virginity.
u must be a very rich guy to buy from Al Salam
or u go there for the sake of the toilet only :)
I think the solution is to install self-hygienic toilets , like the one installed in cournich lately.
lol maybe they need to put signs, or writing in english and arabic to avoid such confusions.
Poverty is not for the sake of hardship. No, it is there because nothing exists but God. Poverty unlocks the door -- what a blessed key!

no toilet paper?
why do you think they put the little shower in the toilet? Do you think it is decorative? that nobody uses?
Then why do you think that floor is always swamped?

Brit,
you havent pissed in City Center?
next time Ill do a photo for you (LOLz).
BTW - most of malls stinks but in Salaam I was absolutely surprised in the other way... even bidet in public bathroom!!!
Who is willing to use a bidet in a mall (even if it is kind of luxury as Salaam)?

very tru tallg
specially this "why is there always a guy in them who looks like a cleaner, but they're never clean?"
and the fact that there is always no toilet paper which gives me hard time to wait until i get back home :S
Qatar is heaven compared to some of the toilets in Saudi..
I find it's best to avoid all toilets in shopping malls if possible. It's always amazed me how relatively new, clean, fresh looking malls can have such disgusting toilets. Plus why is there always a guy in them who looks like a cleaner, but they're never clean? I've emerged from 4-day UK music festivals held during torrential rain with cleaner shoes than I have coming out of the toilets here.
Thanks for the warning.. I'll have to be more careful in the future...... or carry a portable John with me..
I think the ablution place looks very much like a pissoire - long trough on the floor with places to stand in front of it. Especially confusing when the place in question doesn't have a piss trough as well.
britexpat...in the City Center shopping mall the bathrooms have somehow a shorter version of sinks, not the ones that are normally used after getting out of the toilet, and not the ones that are used by muslims where they sit and do the purifying (if thats the correct term), so that where the confusion between abultion and pissoire took place i guess
Well Brit, when I was in Vietnam the bathrooms were troughs that looked surprisingly like the ablution place, so when I came here I thought the same thing to for a couple of seconds.
I can perhaps understand pissing in the sink, but how can you mistake the ablution place for a pissoire ??
His mate was gonna pee pee in the place designated for Muslims to purify themselves prior to prayer. It would have been quite a spectacle.
OK.. I'm confused .. Please clarify..
same thing happened to me and it was a bit funny.
cheers,
