If they are dealing drugs they can afford the 20p.. its also Capel.. hardly a shortage of places for quiet dealings.. likewise going for a piss.. I'd jump the wall and piss against the wall.. but for calls of nature I'd rarely go to a toilet..
Its just typical of the local council.. they want tourism.. well they want to make money from tourism, a very take take attitude and very averse to providing facilities for the outsiders..
To me its a very similar situation to the buses. Each distinct area, each service, is designed to pay for itself.. not seen as contributing to a greater whole which brings in more money..
