I can't find any solution to this problem - the toilet cistern seems to be
a bit too far forward for the seat to stay up.

I've tried altering the position of the fixings (and even lost a double
hole washer down the toilet in the process - and can't find anywhere to
buy a replacement!)

Has anyone else had the same problem and managed to solve it without
raising the cistern?

suitably disguised stick-on magnet(s)/keeper?
