And that it transpired with this recent job caused a blocked toilet of disastrous consequences.
It all started in a new build home in Hyndland. Two kids bored during lock down restrictions were fighting over a toy they both wanted to play with. It led to a fight before the son decided that the best thing to do was flush it down the toilet and not tell anyone. The problem was that he also forgot about this. So not long after, that same boy went to the toilet for what is commonly known as ‘A number 2’.
He tried to flush the toilet but instead of the poo flushing away – it got closer. So, as a young kid who doesn’t understand the engineering behind how a toilet works, he tried again. And again. And again.
And this is where we come in. We were called the the West End address from the mother who had discovered her son splashing about in the bathroom with poo floating on the floor.
We managed to clear the blocked toy and clean up the mess.
And the son has learnt a valuable lesson. Pick a better hiding place for your toys when your sister wants to play with them (only joking. Don’t flush anything down a toilet that isn’t a number 1, a number 2 or toilet paper).
