I'd be to embarrased to get my landlord to fix it. I had the runs
yesterday and it's not a pretty site
ugh
So do I pay a huge call out fee & get it unblocked?
For a totally DISGUSTING picture of the problem, click he

Get your hands on a wooden handle mop with a large head and a mop bucket.
Note, do not use the tiny domestic mop heads.
When the water level is low, use the mop as a plunger a few times.
Flush and try again if the toilet does not empty.
Repeat ad infinitum.
I have used this method at the local primary school with 100 percent
success.
Good luck

I DID THIS!! IT WORKED A TREAT
THANK YOU!!!!!!
I went to Woolworths, paid £6 or a vileda mop.
Shoved it down the hole, hit the flush button
Then I anticipated the worst - the water overflowing and flooding my
floor with ****ty water
But instead, when i lifted the broomstick the blockage had gone!!!
I flushed it again, got a massive can of dettol and sprayed it
everywhere
just been to supermarket ... got Parazone bleach and a three more cans
of dettol. I am going to spray my entire bathroom
So dave - THANKS!
