"I could do without this, to be honest with you": Tanning shop owner left 'truly disgusted' after customer urinates on sunbed... for the FIFTH time

The owner of a tanning salon in Oldham said she was left ‘truly disgusted’ after discovering a customer had urinated whilst using a sunbed for less than ten minutes.

Odelle Burney, who runs The Tanning Room salon on Thomas Street in Lees, said a customer went to use one of the sunbeds on Thursday afternoon (March 2) for a six-minute session.

Shortly after the woman left, Odelle said staff realised that the customer had urinated on the sunbed.

Then she started to notice the smell and lifted the mat up to discover what had happened." "To wee on a sunbed with the electricity and high voltage is pretty crazy to me - why do people think it’s acceptable to do that?
