I’ve blocked the loo in a really expensive hotel room!

[Iimaginethiswillbefun]

Erm how do I get rid of it!!

I’ve tried the loo brush - nada!

Help!

DH worked for a maintenance team in a very posh London hotel for a few years. I can assure you that the maintenance team have seen MUCH worse! Enjoy your break.

We have a small toy sword which we call the Knife of Ultimate Pooth.

What has the cost of the hotel got to do with it? The toilet is blocked whether it’s in a B&B or an ‘expensive’ hotel!

Just phone so n and tell them it’s blocked and they will sort it out.

can you boil a kettle and pour that down?
get a bottle of coke and pour that down?

The iron is a killer. I hope you feel better soon. FWIW I had horrendous vomiting in a hotel bed once, and I’d been drinking red wine the night before. I left a note and stripped the bed but there’s not a lot I could do. These things happen and the hotel will be used to it.

@PurBal

Am I the only one that would call housekeeping?

yes . theres no way i would call them , id be sweating away dealing with it myself

Go and tell the staff!

I did this once and was mortified but they didn't make any fuss, just went and unblocked it for me.

I couldn't call the staff until I had tried myself. This happened to me once in a shared house. Grim.

Have you never seen that scene from Green Wing where Tamsin Greig’s character tries to break up a very large deposit with the sharp end of a ski pole?

I wouldn’t call housekeeping until I’d done all I could to try and sort it. If I was at home I would deal with it myself and would expect to at a hotel as well.

I used the bathroom at JFK airport waiting to come home late one evening, and thought I'd go for a last wee just before our flight boarded.

I flushed (having honestly had a wee), and the entire thing backed up and exploded over the rim...... it was like a volcano. I screamed and ran out the toilet trying to pull my trousers up and hold my bag at the same time......... there was water and poo going all over the floor and covering the cubicles. The poor lady next door was also screaming that her uber expensive bag was now covered in shit........

Everyone was looking at me as if to say "how the hell can someone shit that much out"..... thankfully there was an attendant in there who frogmarched everyone out and sorted out the still screaming bag lady. I've honestly never been so embarrassed in my entire life

For anyone remember a similar post where the poor MNetter had to chop it up with a tea spoon to get rid of it?
I hope something works for you!

Can't help with the current problem, but try Spatone rather than the tablets. Less of the difficult side effects.

Oh well, informing hotel staff of the problem is not remotely embarrassing compared to the woman in Bristol who tried to dispose of her unflushable poo when she was on a Tinder date by throwing it out of the window…

@NiceTwin

Get your hand down there.

Why would you suggest this???

Ditch the iron tablets and some Hema-Plex soft gels. They’re liquid iron in gel capsules and don’t give you constipation. By far the best iron capsules I’ve used.

If you’re ever at home and this happens the best thing ever is a sink plunger. Just a couple of plunges and the poo is gone.

"I've blocked your toilet, Dave!!"

And firefighters had to be called.

Get some prune juice op. Best thing to keep Bowels moving and making it easier to go.

How did you manage to block a toilet??? Have you been eating allbran for a year?
Either that or it's a lousy toilet with not enough water power and a brick in the tank.
Call management and tell them their toilet is rubbish and they need to send a plumber up asap.

Either that or it's a lousy toilet with not enough water power and a brick in the tank.

I agree - I strongly doubt the OP has left anything exceptional in the toilet. The flush should have shifted it.

Sometimes it's worth having a flush half way through, just for future reference.

I remember that tinder date video.

I don't know what's worse: what went through her head to think throwing a shit out the window was a good idea or the extremely in depth interview that the guy gave the BBC
