"EDINBURGH has issued an emergency appeal for 5,000 portable lavatories, 50,000 lavatory rolls, 25,000 bars of soap, 5.5 million paper hand towels, and a secluded spot to dispose of 875,000 gallons of effluent. "
And the last sentence of the following paragraph paints a rather unfortunate picture:
"Keith Bodinnar, chairman of Portable Sanitation Europe, said that the council had asked it to provide between 2,000 and 5,000 portable lavatories. “We’ve now sent out an e-mail to all of our membership with the dates, asking them to acknowledge the availability of units. This is a very busy time and to the best of my knowledge all the available toilets in Scotland are already booked. It’s a challenge for us to get our teeth into,” he said."
