  • I do like a poo that shoots straight down and through the u-bend without flushing! It's almost like it didn't happen! :)

    My ex once told me a story about his dad.

    He was a gas man, and round a very posh ladies house, servicing her boiler. Nature called, and he did a really big jobbie.

    He flushed and flushed but it wouldn't go down.

    He resorted to chopping it in half with a screwdriver!

    Even if it's a pull chain? Would love to see that. :rotfl:

    Hmmm im not that good unfortunately :rotfl:

    OH parents have a pull chain loo in their downstairs toilet, I always go upstairs, to be fair most loos these days are button flushers, so often I have no choice other than to get my precious little finger covered in poo particles.

    This can spell disaster if one finds onself in a dodgy pub loo devoid of hand soap _pale_

    Speaking of work loos a while back several emails were sent round as there appeared to be a persistent tampon applicator dropper who seemed to just leave all her tampon applicators on the floor.

    People used to rant and rave about the dirty mare being at it again. It was only one day when I took a closer look that it became apparent this tampon applicator was actually a part of the loo roll holder which kept on falling out (not sure who kept replacing it as it was the cleaners requesting that thd emails be sent out).

    There was also a toenail in one of the cubicles which remained there for at least 12 months. I dont think it was actually ever moved, probably just disintegrated.

    :rotfl:This is the funniest story I've heard in ages! Hilarious!

    BTW - I've never seen jobbie written down before. :D I always thought it ended in a 'y'?

    Looks like we've got our own Gillian McKeith here :D

    Not at all...which is why I think people should go to their doctor...not me. :D

    It's absolutely true that in a healthy person with a healthy diet poo should be....healthy. It's not just the fad of an odd woman ( I don't like Gillian mckeith) and eating well for health and taking health seriously is pretty fundamentally moneysaving. Ill health is expensive.

    I agree with you, major or prolonged changes in bowel habits should mean a trip to the docs. There's lots that can go wrong with your guts and the consequences can be horrid (see earlier post about ileostomies.)

    Gillian McKeith is definitely odd though.

    Oh, and as another iBS sufferer (and after a couple of really close shaves :eek: ) I always sit near the loo on the train and I'd never before noticed how *busy* the train loos are. I did feel for a woman tonight having to battle her way through a crowded train (massive delays tonight) to the loo. I felt her panic :eek:

    iBS. Designer bowels? :rotfl:

    I hate being in a loo when somebody occupying the next stall is farting and squelching

    Oh dear! I recently overheard exactly this through the wall from ladies loo next door to the gents, only it was followed by two loud sobs. My mind boggled. :shocked:
