Michael Moynihan: Public loos are no longer a private matter

We may not wish to talk about it but Covid-19 has highlighted the lack of decent and plentiful public toilets in Cork City, writes Michael Moynihan

Seinfeld's George Costanza (Jason Alexander), second from left, prides himself on knowledge of public loos.

Business brought me to the centre of Cork the other evening, though I acknowledge that ‘centre’ may be a movable feast, particularly with the boundaries being redrawn recently.

(Note to self, future column topic possibility: where is the centre of Cork?) For our purposes I take it no one objects to that wide open space in front of the old Cudmore’s shop at the top of Winthrop Street as a centre point.
