The Bald Builders and two Fix Radio producers swept to victory at the Loo of the Year of Award last night, with their Ultimate Builders Portaloo. The portable potty, which was equipped with an onsite radio, an electric fan, WIFI and snacks was graded platinum plus by the judges. The Ultimate Builders Portaloo was the inaugural winner in the Building and Construction category. The idea of building the ultimate onsite lav started as a radio feature on the Bald Builders Breakfast in June last year. After taking suggestions from listeners on air and converting a portaloo supplied by Euroloo, the judges Charles and Becky Wall visited the Bald Kitchen in July to see it situ. “We can now say honestly that we have an award-winning morning breakfast show,” said Jack Edwards, senior producer, Bald Builders Breakfast. “Although this started as a bit of a joke, there is a serious side to this. The Loo of the Year Awards promote safe and hygienic places to go to the toilet. Something that the industry needs more of,” he added. See the how the boys built the Ultimate Builders Portal.
