To wish people would flush the toilet during the night?

[Meta4]

I mean please. Just flush the damn thing. No one will wake up.

I really don't like to be the one to discover someone else's pool of piss in the bowl first thing.

do you not remember the summer of 1976
when we were taught how to brush teeth in a cup full of water (V useful skill for festivals to this day)
and the water was switched off during the day and the night and the water pressure reduced
flushing toilets when there was little to actually go was actively discouraged by the water companies

Actually yes I remember it well (I'm old )

Be lovely if DD1 actually flushed at all. And she can produce logs to rival any fully grown adult.

Was it One foot in the Grave where the neighbour asked Victor not to flush at night because it woke the mother up? Just musing..

If its a bit of wee, who cares? just wipe the seat

YABU, I'm pregnant and currently visit the loo 95 million times a night (it feels like it anyway) and its always the smallest amount, it'd be water wasteage to flush everytime.

I'd just love it not to find skid marks in the pan every fucking morning

Count yourself lucky minibow (7) doesn't flush after a poo and hers stink.

I don't when I am in my own house, it is right next to my room (where dd sleeps) and would wake her up in an instant. It is only me and her though, so I don't have to worry about what anyone else thinks of it.

Had this exact thought last night OP. I was feeding, FIL got up did the most enormous power hose wee (barf) and shuffled back to bed without flushing. I did chuckle when DD1 (nearly 3) shouted at the top of her voice at 6.05am "Daddy, I can't do my morning wee" "why not?" "someone else's is already there and it's brooooown. Erghhhh".

A year or so ago there was a website called Poo Tracker or something where you could flush and track your poo. DS2 wanted to have a go but I said no need as it was always right where he left it in the toilet bowl. Sometimes with no paper.

I remember the LONG HOT SUMMER that was 1976, the advice on how to survive it was published in the National Newpapers....I could go on, similar to public broadcasting in WW2. Anyway, back on topic I'm all for a quiet night, never flush at night at home but when in other's homes, anguish over whether to flush or not are we good enough friends or not. Generally I don't and still get invited back. Water is expensive, and the water we flush with, you can drink, which is unusual in other parts of the world. Biggy subject.

We have noisy pipes and, like Icooksocks, I spend half the bloody night weeing so if I flushed every time no-one would ever get any sleep.

But I am generally the first one in the bathroom in the morning anyway so I am the one who gets rid of my own accumulated wee.....

At least its not your Dh sparling

At least I don't think it is goldbow.

"Our toilet is quiet, it's the plumbing that isn't. It flushes, refills, and then when the water stops flowing there is an incredibly loud thump"

Water hammer

Unless you have exceptionally high water pressure, it will be caused by metal pipes that are not firmly clipped to the wall.

Invest in a cordless drill, some plasplugs and screws, and some pipe clips (I bet yours are 15mm copper)

A silent filling valve will not do that. If the pipe goes into the side of the cistern (not the bottom) it is an easy swap.

very quiet flush to replace noisy old syphon
