    My toilet is Saniflow 33 and although a few years old it's great. To test it I put in a pound of mashed up Dundee cake, one pull on the handle, and the result........not a trace! Really gives peace of mind, especially when I have elderly relatives visiting .

    What a waste of Dundee cake....................

    ..When in town, there are insufficient trees, so it makes sense to use a proper toilet - That and the natives get a little stroppy if you use a flower boarder :rotfl:

    I bet the boarder in the flowers gets stroppy too. ;)

    Is toilet paper (non Izal!) not designed to break down in water after a while?

    I bloody well does if you leave it in a pocket when you put clothes in the washing machine!!!

    Oh for the olden days ...


    Mrs. Pants:
    But what about the privies?
    Blackadder:
    Um, well, what we are talking about in privy terms is the latest in front wall fresh air orifices combined with a wide capacity gutter installation below.
    Mrs. Pants:
    You mean you crap out the window?
    Blackadder:
    Yes.
    Mrs. Pants:
    Well in that case we'll definitely take it. I can't stand those dirty indoor things.

    So your relatives come and put mashed up Dundee cake down the loo? Is it home made?

    get in another plumber. if necessary replace internals for one that handles paper. not worth the alternative hassle.
