LondonHow it works
Three steps01
Snap it
Find the door. Wait for whoever is in there to leave. Take the photo — landscape if you must, but doors are famously vertical.
02
Submit it
One door per entry, bar name and city included. Yes, someone checks that it is genuinely a toilet door. That is the job.
03
Vote, then look
You get one vote a month, and no scoreboard to lean on until you have used it. Voting runs to the last day of the month; the winner goes up in the Hall of Fame.
