Learning to crochet foiled again!

I could do very basic crochet when I was a teenager but didn't carry on. A few years ago I did a very good City Lit class but didn't practise soon enough after I finished the class.

Then a booklet from Waltham Forest Council popped through my door last week and one of the events inside was a two hour crochet class, as part of Adult Learners Week, at North Chingford library today - which was my day off. So I booked.

I left the house at 8.30 this morning to leave plenty of time for the 97 bus to get me to Chingford. The class was at 10.00. When I arrived I found there is no lavatory for public use at the library. The public lavatory next door to the library is permanently closed. I was told there was a community lavatory at the Pie and Mash shop past Tescos so off I went - to find the shop was not yet open.

I didn't stay for the class as I was not going to be able to last that long without a lavatory.

I have emailed to complain, asking that the write-up for other events at this library and other venues with the same problem should be clear there are no lavatory facilities so only locals attend.

Disappointed not to have the class and an almost wasted morning (did get some reading done on the bus!).
