Visiting public toilets is often something you’d rather avoid… unless you’re travelling via Colesberg, South Africa… where a special lady has transformed a visit to the loo into a far more pleasant trip.
Sue Gaskin, from the NMMU Business School (according to her Facebook profile), posted this message and photos on Wednesday: “This is Virginia who looks after the Loos at Colesberg Shell City – they are filled with fresh flowers weekly ?.
“I love that she has taken a humble job and made it special – I think she deserves some cyber recognition – like and share please – spread the love ???”
Turns out Sue wasn’t the only one who had noticed Virginia’s fabulous floral touch. Others expressed their gratitude too. Here are just some of the messages on Facebook:
