MEN’s TOILET, GIPPING – Dave Biggle, landlord of the Black Bull pub in Gipping, Suffolk found himself embroiled in a sticky situation after installing a sanitary towel dispensing machine in the MEN’s toilet.

Twenty stone Biggle defended his decision by claiming it was a practical solution to a peculiar problem. The unsightly “dribble” that some of his male patrons experienced after a few too many pints.
Pub landlord claimed that some of his female customers had suggested the idea. They were repulsed by the sight of men’s ‘piss-stained trousers’ on nights spent at the pub.
Offensive vending machine
Dubbed the “Always Ultra” incident, the introduction of panty liners into the men’s restroom raised dubious eyebrows and sparked debate among regular pub-goers. However, the situation took a turn for the worse when one particularly macho patron took offence to the presence of the ‘girly’ vending machine.
Piss off
Incensed by what Pub landlord perceived as an affront to his masculinity. He took matters into his own hands—or rather, his own fists—and promptly ripped the machine from the wall with a primal roar. Witnesses described the disgruntled patron hurling the offending machine into the nearest lavatory bowl.
Regret of Pub landlord
As Pub landlord, Biggle surveyed the damage, he instantly regretted his decision. In hindsight, perhaps installing a ‘little blue pill’ machine would have been a safer bet.
