Default Mystery pool of water in the bathroom.

My neighbour has a pool of water that mysteriously appears on her
bathroom floor at random times usually once or twice a week.
It appears on the floor in the 18" space between the toilet and the
bath and appears even when she is not in the flat.
I strongly suspect that it is coming over the top of the pan as I
have found the lip to be wet (she is in a 1st floor flat so is this
even likely?)
It has been going on for ages, I have brilliantly suggested a time
lapse camera but she won't have that in her bathroom. I have also
suggested putting one of those blue things in the cistern. Any other
ideas as to how to get to the bottom of the mystery pool of water?

Thanks

Tell her to squirt and keep squirting plenty of washing up liquid into the
pan every time she flushes the toilet.
If the lip of the pan and the floor is full of suds you have found the
cause.
