Re hand washing and opening doors (Tuesday letters), the recommended way to open doors after washing your hands is to use the paper towel you used to dry your hands to turn the knob. Unfortunately, many public places are now using blowdryers for hands, so I just grab some extra toilet paper.

Many of us either a) use the paper towel we wiped our hands with to open the door, then discard the towel in a bin, or b) carry an alcohol gel hand cleaner (the sort you get in hospitals) and reclean our hands after leaving.

Opening the toilet door should be the least of your worries.
