Default Toilet seat not staying up?

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?


We have the same problem except the plank that did the bathroom before
we had the house actually put the toilet in on a forward tilting angle
then fitted slate floor tiles cut around (and up) the base of the toilet.

So, we have a 6 yr old weeing on the seat. Myself I do a ladies (or
lazyman) style wee and 'er don't even know there's anything wrong with
it as she's never attempted weeing standing up..... well, I hope not as
our old dog may have been blamed for nothing for all these years!
(yes he sometimes wees in the bathroom!)

:¬)

I'll be watching this thread closely.
