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

Useful tip: get a dark coloured christmas hat from a cracker, take a
small piece and wrap it in a piece of soft white bogroll. If it gets
wet, the colour will run and stain the bogroll.

Cheers

Easier to just lay sheets of newspaper on the floor around the pan.
