I'm a SHE!
I live alone so i can guarantee there is nothing else down the toilet except the obvious. :rotfl:
I have tried the bucket of water but no joy at the moment.
Might try the caustic soda from B&Q today because i only have the one toilet so it's getting mildly inconvenient now!0 -
Just get your hand down there and push the stuff around the bend. Try it BEFORE using the caustic soda though
Had to do that a few times when kids were young. There may be brown bits and other stuff in there but you've got soap and water to wash afterward.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
She's a woman, she won't even look at a toilet let alone put her hand down it!

Good luck Ali, rather you than me.
I actually have trouble trying to convince my kids that toilet paper is necessary so we don't suffer from blockages much, although they did put loads of straws down the sink plug for mysterious reasons all of their own and OH had to take the trap off and empty it :eek:
Let us know how you get on!Mum of several with a twisted sense of humour and a laundry obsession:o

Do not put anything in this toilet unless its been through your digestive system.Get some gorm.0 -
Despite being female i donned the rubber gloves.
Right to the bottom and as far as i could into the pipe, nothing found and no blockage felt. :mad:
