*that, not than.

Dh had a colleague who was desperate for the loo while working in a customers house.

It wouldn't flush away, she came home while he was still trying to flush it, there was no loo brush to push it down either. bless him , he was mortified!

Your poor DP Dann, that must be horrible, if he has to go he has to go. IBS is evil.

I'm one of those who wouldn't be the slightest bit concerned by anybody pooing in my loo BUT I would never poo in anyone else's loo myself because I'd be too embarrassed.

No window.

No toilet brush.

He did leave a mark. Discreet squirt of bleach sorted it out.

DH said he prob wouldn't poo in someone else's loo. He just shrugged and wandered off when pressed further.

The whole scenario has reminded me of a number of threads on here involving tradesmen and appropriate loo usage. I practically broke my neck to get online to post about it on here.

I never get people who say they can only poo at home surely if you need to go, you need to go? I can't hold it in!!

A workman once did one in the loo at my old house that was too big to flush away....I got my soon to be ex boyfriend to deal with it; in fact I think it might have been the same day

Bah, that's nothing!

My sister was rather dismayed when the man relaying the felt on her garage roof, shat on said roof. She knows this because she stuck her head out of the bathroom window to ask if he wanted a cuppa and caught him mid squat. I believe it was a rather awkward moment.

It's not always straightforward. I have MH problems with people I don't know in my house. (I'm dealing with them.) But I had workmen I didn't know in my house to do work for the neighbours. (I had the only access.) It was a neighbourly oncession but the workmen used my private bathroom without asking. (If they 'd asked they'd have been referred downstairs.)

Sorry and all - but I don't want men I don't know peeing and pooing over my own space.

Sorry Megatron but [laugh] - there needs to be a smiley for laughing whilst drinking coffee at the computer.

Megatron

I had to throw away a loo seat after a bloke had been to mend the dishwasher.

Yep Sparkling. I'm sure she was on the phone to me before the poor man got his trousies up. I'm afraid I wasn't as sympathetic as she'd hoped I'd be on account of the fact that I thought it was the funniest thing i'd ever heard.

This is hilarious!

Some of you are very erm, anal .

We all piss and shit, get over it.

Sorry Megatron but [laugh] - there needs to be a smiley for laughing whilst drinking coffee at the computer.

superdrooper well if I really couldn't hold it then yes, I would go where necessary but I think most people without a permanent or temporary affliction can hold poo for a long time.

The builder who did my bathroom would spend ages in the loo, evidently having a dump, almost as soon as he arrived in the morning. He chose the downstairs loo which is rather prone to blocking. I didn't judge too harshly - that's what it's there for.

My dh has a sphinctor muscle made of steel , there's no number two coming out of there unless it's on his own throne.

My sister is terribly proper too Dizzy, I think she was traumatised for weeks afterwards.

Is there still a poo on her roof Megatron? The aerial man came here not long ago and now I'm wondering.......

I know some joiners and gardeners who have a poo bucket in their vans.
I haven't asked how they dispose of the contents.
Maybe they line the bucket with a plastic bag.

Megatron that is funny! I read it to DH and he is disgusted!

Its a toilet so errr its for wee and poo.??!!

If you got to go you got to go... Even the hired help..

I know someone who is a brickie and they say that they have done a poo in the cavity walks of every house they've built! A friend if mine was helping him on a job and saw him sitting on the gap and doing it whilst reading the paper!!!
