And yet, shit and urine are the two top bodily fluids I can cope with, which is saying something, seeing as most of them make me reel in horror and want to puke.

And pet and children shit and urine is absolutely fine. I understand how you dealt with Tara on the train, you just get on with it and look after them. Urine samples annoy me only because they are so impractical, and I can't help thinking that it's a result of inequality - medicine is dominated by doctors and they just haven't got around to creating some way of woman collecting their urine easily. I can think of three right now, but...

I knew a girl could pee into the opening of a Coke can - handy on long car journeys. I can't quite do that but I can manage a standard sample container quite happily. Just clamp it round the right bit, controlled squirt and away.

Would think most women could certainly manage with a pint glass (or similar sized container)? Or am I Waaaay off the mark there?
