Man with IBS begs for more toilets in Tube stations as he's had near-misses  My London

London is one of the greatest cities on earth. Wherever you go, east or west, there seems to be a pub or Tube station on every corner, but one complaint Londoners have is about the lack of toilets when you're out and about and in particular inside London Underground stations. 

Speaking on Reddit, Londoners have been sharing their stories of near-misses when desperate for the toilet while out and about, with one Reddit user, who suffers with irritable bowel syndrome [IBS], sharing their embarrassment about having to ask cafe staff to use the loo at short notice. 

One Reddit user commented: "Honestly. [I] moved here from the US last year where toilets are aplenty. I have IBS and sometimes if I'm sitting at a cafe doing work I suddenly may have to GO.
