    Are you mental?!!!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    We have a 'back toilet' at home which is used by farther for such business.

    Presumably the removal man was working for you at the time, so had been unable to use alternative facilities to do it... what would you prefer him to have done?

    And after how long of you moving in did your OH decide it acceptable to allow a poo into the toilet?

    Oh get a grip.

    I just meant he was mad because he wanted to christen his new toilet.

    We were quite happy for the removal men to use our facilities. We even allowed them to use our plates and cutlery when we bought them fish and chips for lunch.

    I won't have aerosol "air fresheners" in the house. Disgusting things.

    Yes, I do burn the candles when I'm not in there. They are in jars, so nothing can get to the flames and there are shelves/surfaces that are nowhere near where people or fabric could be. Not had an issue with it in 8 years in this house, nor 7 in my previous house.

    I'll burn them for about half an hour or so and then let the fragrance waft gently as the wax re-sets.

    I agree that aerosol air fresheners are disgusting. But then so are those bloody awful scented candles. I've never smelt one yet that was even remotely pleasant.:(

    Yes, use the extractor and open a window. But when push comes to shove, a normal dump is not as bad as a scented candle!_pale_

    On the thread in general, I agree with Nicki that some people have some serious issues when it comes to the thunder-box!:o

    As a twist on this topic I tell you what is also bad. If your a guest in someone elces home and they leave their toilet in a disgusting state. I was once at a friends and nipped to the loo for a number 1 and the toilet bowl was splattered with you know what.
    I had to clean the loo before I went myself. I explained to her that I wasnt being rude but someone had left the loo in a bad way. She said it was her son and that he does that and she was going to have a word with him.
    The son was about 18 at the time. I'd would have been ashamed if my child was that ignorant.

    I only have subtle ones. I hate anything over powering. Either yankee candle's "fresh linen" or molton brown's "rose granati". Both very subtle.

    Does it annoy you when people come to your house and have a poo? Why can't they go before they leave home??
    Only when they don't use the toilet, however I do get fed up if they just come in, ease n squeeze, then leave. As well as treading in it whenever I go to make a brew. :D

    Now this I can relate to. I always change it, do you?

    Always. I've tried leaving it but can't relax until I know I've 'fixed' it :embarasse

    My husband has a colleague who lodges with an elderly couple - he's not allowed to poo in the house, he has to go down the road to Asda!

    My friends know about my bowel problems and have never even so much as raised an eyebrow if I have disappeared off to their loo for a while.
    I honestly had no idea this was an issue for some people.
    I am slightly OCD about leaving any toilet I use clean so if the bathroom I am using has bleach, a brush, a window and some air freshener I am very happy. I carry a mini body spray in case there is no way to clean the air so I don't leave any bad smells behind.
