right this is going to sound disgusting and i sound like ALex from big brother but.....


my toilet takes nearly 5 minutes to refil...now is this normal or does my toilet need some loving to make it work better?

right i need advice cause my mum&dad say its just me and im "Inpatient" but on sunday it took 5 minutes and 21 seconds to refil...

sorry if this is a disgusting topic but its really annoying me now!

[Uglybob]

thats not normal, get a plumber, should refill within 30 seconds normally

[Lawrie]

my god! my toilet is dodgy!!

[spellsy]

Until you bought up the topic, I didn't know. So I have peformed a scientific experiment. Refil from upstairs toilet = 45 seconds : Refil from downstairs = 40 secondsTherefore average refil time = 42.5 seconds


Verdict..................You have a problem

[stevenuk]

How many times do you have to flush your toilet!?

[Uglybob]

my sister has a problem whereby one flush is not enough for her dumps cos they keep floating so on occasions it takes her about 5 times to finally get rid of it. good job she doesnt read this often.

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

just poo outside in a hole its easier.

gassy ol' boy, you make me laugh. and bob you make me sick! actually, there's a floor in my house where all the toilets have horrible pressure, thank god i don't live on it. the toilet across the hall from me takes for ever to fill as well, but i don't mind because a- i'm not going to fix it, and b- it prevents the seat from ever being warm when i use it.

floaters aren't good...

I sometimes have the problem when the khazi gets blocked after I have a dump - but that is more to do with the bog paper rather than the excrement. So I thought about flushing between the dump and the wiping, but I never tried that because I was worried the bog might get blocked after the first flush - and there would be me waiting for it to unblock with an unwiped arse.

[kendra k]

that's just more disgusting than bob's comment earlier.

[M+L Fan]

You shouldn't be such a prude, Kendra. I havn't even started about the hair problems and the cheeks sticking together on a hot day...

[Uglybob]

oh yeah thats a bugger, thats why i think every new home should fit in them a bidet.

[kendra k]

what other problems do you men have with personal hygiene? this is all very fascinating.

[M+L Fan]

I havn't got a problem with personal hygiene - it's more...ahem...hair growth...ahem...in certain areas. The problem is it wouldn't be very nice to shave in these...ahem...'areas'.

[kendra k]

you could always try burning off the excess hair with something like nair, or waxing. excess hair gorwth is an easily solved problem.

[Uglybob]

i tried one area which you shouldnt and it stung me like *.

[M+L Fan]

Imagine how much it would sting and chafe if one shaved their perenium.

[kendra k]

no body said it wasn't painful or exceedingly vain.

[Uglybob]

its not vanity just hate excessive hair

[Morals]

I didn't have any wax or anything like that, so I just tried using selotape... I really wouldn't suggest anyone else tries the same. I'm going to go and sit on a large inflatable inner tube...

[kendra k]

how often are you boys showing your cracks off though? that's what i want to know.

[Uglybob]

its personal, i dont want to sit down with no sweaty sticky arse

It itches like mad for two days and then it stings like mad trust me, but i never shaved in *that* place i must admit
