uv lights

[bobb1985]

what is the purpose of uv lights in pub or club toilets? my mate gwil thinks its because smackheads can't see the vein in uv light, so it stops them shooting up.

Your mate is totally correct the blue light stops you being able to see the blue veins in your body.

I use to work in a nightclub and we had loads of people ask the same question, that's why I know!

I went in the public toilets in a supermarket and all the lights were blue - there was a notice up to say it was to deter vandals. Maybe there was also another reason..............

I will highlight my veins in fluorescent green before I go in those nightclubs then, lol

We know your not joking Ratter. lol

[bobb1985]

ive heard off another source that uv rays kill bacteria... so maybe there is a complete innocent reasoning behind it all.

You got me sussed, trouble is my syringe always gets blocked up with the leaves!!

The UV lights are deigned as a deterrent for users. You can usually tell if a pub has a regular user clientele because the cistern tops and toilet seats will either be missing, or coated in vaseline - again to stop providing a handy work surface for shooting or snorting.
