Do you flush?

[d000hg]

Since we're clearly have a toilet day on CUK, what's with people that they will happily use a toilet, even for a dump, and just walk off without flushing? Is it some sort of act of defiance, or are they genuinely that stupid that they don't think to do it? The wife says its a problem with very young children at school, they have to be trained to do it, but surely even the thickest adult knows what the little lever is for?

If its yellow let it mellow, if its brown flush it down.

In Virgin Active AldersGate automatic flush is installed. Very awkward to use. Never sure it will actually work.

Could just be 'The Change' at your age. You could always join the old man's support group, but it's mainly aimed at working ladies.

I did flush in my hotel room just a moment ago but the toilet blocked and started to overflow. So I had to look around for a plunger of some kind. The best I could find was a plastic water bottle which I then used to unblock the loo by pushing it vigorously into the blockage.

The toilet is still blocked and now there is a tulipty bottle of water in the bin.

Thanks for sharing.

Slightly off topic but on a School holiday to Austria, when I was about 13, they had those toilets where you poo onto a flat porcelain shelf and the flush whisks the turd away down a little hole at the front of the loo. We had a rather mousy Geography teacher on the trip, can't remember her name though, and she came sheepishly out of one of the hotel WCs as a friend of mine was waiting to go in. There was a whopper of a stool in the pan when he lifted the lid. Forever-after she was known as Mrs Heavypoo.

Please stay on topic.
