Unblocking A Toilet

[Barmaid]

Lord knows how step son has managed to block his loo but he has. Think the blockage is in the u-bend. I certainly cant feel anything this side of the u-bend (carefully using my *** stick).

I have tried washing up liquid and hot water.

I have been advised to use an old fashioned mop to plunge it but I dont have one. There is no way I am using my plunger - the handle is far too short and I am being a wuss.

We do not have a single wire coat hanger in the entire house.

Any other ideas apart from calling Dyno-Rod or whoever (and sending the boy child to the pub to do his business)!? We do have other facilities, but obviously this needs dealing with.

Can't you send a lad down - like sending a lad up the chimney ?

You could consider 'adjusting' his diet...:-)

I do like the phrase "extreme turdation". :)) glad you got it sorted, Barmaid.

Warn him that if he does it again, he'll be doing the unblocking. If he's 17 he needs a bit of DIY experience.

Cheap easy way to unblock a toilet.
1. cut the bottom off 2L plastic drink bottle. (use scissors)
2. make sure the cap is screwed on tight.
3. push open end down the bowl a few times.
4. tip a bucket of water down the bowl to test blockage is gone, then flush.

When working with persons with LD, the Turd- they had was a menace, The same time as you flush tip in a bucket of water, worked every time.
