My daughter lives in a fairly new house which she shares with two (gay)
blokes.

They have an en suite in their bedroom & she uses the adjacent bathroom -
the WC's are more or less back to back - & both blocked (they have a
downstairs cloakroom that is unaffected, discharges into a different place).

I've tried a drain snake thingy to no avail & rodding the drain using both a
screw & the rubber plunger - cant reach any blockage with 8 x 1 m rods.

The bath, shower & wash basins are OK, so my guess is that the blockage is
somewhere between the two WC's, probably at a bend or join.

I suggested they try caustic soda. One of the guys went to B&Q to be told
they couldn't sell it anymore because it can be used to make bombs(?).

Search on B&Q's crap website doesn't show it, search only takes you to two
overpriced drain cleaners, Wilkinsons list it but are out of stock, Homebase
U/S - Focus do list it, but we don't have one nearby.

WTF is this 'can be used to make bombs' about?

I'm sure I bought some in B&Q a short while ago.
