You really are a ****** with mental heath issues. Guess that the
dole has not paid you yet.

I do not abide by government lockdown regulations.

And why don't you answer other people too? You have plenty time now
you have no dog or wife.

Other people do not get up my nose.

I will take that as a compliment. You always considered yourself the king of arguing, but you are in fact in second place. You will never beat me.

Yes, my wife is dead. But I still have my little dog.

You told me Lucy died. Did you get another? Dogs do not live long enough, a good reason to have a parrot. 60-90 years depending on breed.

When did two pipe systems start being used? Because I was surprised to see sinks sharing a pipe with rainwater on a building which I don't think is all that old. Hopefully it goes into the sewer and not the rainwater drain.

In this country (Aus) the sullage and the sewerage are kept separate.
The sullage lines go out into the street stormwater drains. They are
*not allowed* to be connected to the sewerage lines. The sewerage lines,
using separate pipes, are plumbed into the sewerage system. If the
sullage were connected to the sewerage, the sewerage treatment plants
get flooded bigtime because when it rains here it really ****es down.

I suppose we use what you would call a two pipe system. There is talk
here of introducing a new third pipe for greywater. That is, water that
comes from baths, sinks, showers, etc. as opposed to sewerage from
toilets. Difficult to retrofit of course but new estates are likely to
be plumbed this way in the near future.

This country is in fact the UK, hence the uk in uk.d-i-y, and we don't do things that way. Millions of old houses put the whole lot down the sewage system.

What??? You already have a *sullage system*. It's more commonly known
as a *storm water system*. The street drains feed into it and that's
where household sullage lines should also feed into. The sewerage is and
always should be separate (note spelling).

It isn't on older houses. I don't know when they introduced storm drains as being seperate. I agree it would be strange if they had those but connected the houses just to the sewer.

when someone connects something to the wrong pipe as I've done for
convenience, sewage goes into the sea.

to keep working until the plumber shows up.

There is some suggestion on certain web sites that it is to increase

The air break will assist in that.

Here the roof drains don't even connect to the storm drain. They spill
out onto the lawn where hopefully most of it soaks in before it runs
out onto the street and into the storm drains.

If the pipe is blocked and you empty your bath, then if you have a
box,
the water goes everywhere outside. If you have no box, the bath just
stays full and you call a plumber. The second one is preferable
obviously.

No its not; Much more convenient for the bath
to keep working until the plumber shows up.

I don't want a bath full of water all over my garden.

Why not? It's grey water so will not harm the *garden*.

Specially when the entire island is so soggy already.

Hey I actually watered the garden today, hasn't rained for a fortnight.

Mad. I only water mine when it hasn't rained for a year.

I still have them. It provides an air break to prevent feedback.


There is some suggestion on certain web sites that it is to increase
flow rate.

The air break will assist in that.

How?

When you have a dam with the hopper the air can't get in.

In this country (Aus) the sullage and the sewerage are kept separate.
The sullage lines go out into the street stormwater drains. They are
*not allowed* to be connected to the sewerage lines.

And somebody checks this regularly do they?

Don't need to, just check that when the house is built or modified.

Sure, you can see that bodged with a new shed etc
when they don't bother to get that approved but
that's not that common. Most of those don't bother
to put the shed roof runoff into any drain, just let
it go onto the garden etc.

Same "rule" applies in the UK, but I sometimes ignore it if the wrong pipe
is closer to connect to.

No its not; Much more convenient for the bath
to keep working until the plumber shows up.

I don't want a bath full of water all over my garden.

Why not? It's grey water so will not harm the *garden*.

Specially when the entire island is so soggy already.

Hey I actually watered the garden today, hasn't rained for a fortnight.

Mad. I only water mine when it hasn't rained for a year.

Depends on the size of the plants. Ones that have been there a while have deeper roots.

Don't most people do a **** a day?

But don't use every dunny for that every day,

U-bends mean it doesn't matter if every pipe isn't fresh.

He didn't mean fresh in that sense, turds and **** lying in
the sewer past the bend for weeks or months. That doesn't
happen with the rain water and sewer are the one pipe.

If they're past the bend who cares?

Those who have to unblock them.

Blockages are caused by toilet paper, not ****.

most obviously with the dunny in the shed etc. The block of flats I
lived
in before building the house actually had a dunny for the gardener.

Aren't all Aussie dunnies in the shed?

They never were in the shed when we had dunny
carts collecting the **** and **** that was in tins under
the seat and emptied weekly into the dunny cart.

Great job, eh ?

What about outhouses?

We call those dunnys. Only the yanks have outhouses.

I thought any toilet was a dunny, no matter if it's indoors or outdoors.
a cludgy if you don't mind ...

The job is described in census returns in the UK as "gong farmer" or "night
soil".

My grandpa, who lived in a small town in the woollen manufacturing area of
West Yorkshire, could remember when he was little (so maybe 1910-15) a man
leading a horse-drawn cart with a big wooden barrel, calling out "Old Wesh"
(wash). This was one of those street-vendor's calls that sounds like
gibberish because it's said so many times (as in the Morecambe and Wise
"Morny Stannit" sketch). But this man was actually asking people to take out
their chamberpots of **** to pour into the barrel: stale urine was used for
treating the wool - not sure whether it was part of the fulling process or
for fixing the dye into the wool.
