In somebodies downstairs toilet and you pebble dash the seat, the rim AND the cistern you should either bloody well clean it up or say to your guest "I'm ever so sorry, but I seem to have shat half of the River Nile around your bathroom, I'm now a bit weak, would you mind cleaning it?"

It was not a pleasant experience walking into that this morning and it had been there since yesterday P.M (she was the only one to use that toilet) so it's stuck fast.

And yes I know I should be more sympathetic to people with diarrhoea but a warning would have been nice!!

I remember working in an office where there was at least one dirty cow like this as well: again, stiff letters had to be sent round and notices pinned up in the loo before it stopped.
Basically we can all have gross bodily malfunctions now and again, but it's not fair or reasonable to leave a huge mess in someone else's house, make no attempt to clean it up and not even apologise. Surely most people who have something like this happen make desperate attempts to clear up after themselves.

I remember the toilet brush thread

There is a chance she might not have noticed, but she continued using that toilet during the evening and first thing this morning before she left. I use the upstairs toilet, the downstairs toilet belongs to DS, the cat and guests.

Yeah, we had a skank in an office wehre I worked who did this.

We all knew who it was, too, Claire, if you're reading this . . .

But of course there had to be an email sent round and noticed up in the ladies room.

pigletmania · 25/09/2009 15:27

I know he he my mum had to clean it up but she showed me after she left what she had done. However my mum is one for speaking, when she comes over does not flush the loo(save water) and leaves skid marks in the bowl and seat up (she hovers)lol

pigletmania · 25/09/2009 15:29

nothing like a bit o toilet humour lol

SolidGoldBrass · 25/09/2009 18:40

When I was in my teens I had a couple of dates with this excitingly wicked chap who my friends warned me was the Dangerous to Know type (Hmm, think he might once have smoked a joint or shoplifted a packet of condoms...) Anyway I thought he was utterly fascinating until the night he walked me home, asked if he could quickly use the loo at my parents place... and did what the OP's mate did. Which was discovered once he'd gone by my dad...
Blinking flip what a passion killer that was. I was 'busy' the next couple of times he rang and luckily never saw him again.

qwertpoiuy · 25/09/2009 18:45

I always like to leave a toilet like it has never been used, and even more so in other people's houses! Dirty devil.

Though the OP reminds me of this hilarious video which I JUST had to post!!

This thread has reminded me to replace the loo cleaning wipes in my visitors' loo!

ThePhantomPlopper · 25/09/2009 18:59

She rang earlier, couldn't bring myself to bring it up with her.

I've cleaned it now, I don't think I'll be able to look at her the same way again.

Oh no solidgoldbrass not very nice at all.

pigletmania · 25/09/2009 19:03

I think Phantomplopper just provide anti bacterial wips where they will be visible and put mabey a discreet notice on the inside of the toilet door that wipes are provided for your own cleanliness and comfort

whoingodsnameami · 25/09/2009 19:07

Are you sure it was diarrhoea, to get it all up the cistern and all round the rim sounds like vomiting to me.

MmeLindt · 25/09/2009 19:08

A discreet notice on the door?

If a friend had a notice on her loo door I would think she had gone mad.

YANBU, your friend is a minger.

ThePhantomPlopper · 25/09/2009 19:10

Urgh I don't know what's worse.

I'm sure it was poo, I would have heard her up chuck and she didn't look like she'd vommed at any point IFYSWIM?

junglist1 · 25/09/2009 19:38

Everytime you look at her now you'll remember the splats. This whole thing is excruitiatingly mortifying

ThingOne · 25/09/2009 19:39

It's a horrible thing to do. I am technically disabled due to my bowel condition and I would never ever leave a mess in anyone's house. I clean with loo roll if there is nothing else, no matter how shit I'm feeling.

Even if it's vomiting you clean your own up when you are an adult unless you are very ill. You just do not leave it. It's a foul thing to do.

expatinscotland · 25/09/2009 19:42

This thread has been fab for my diet!

BitOfFun · 25/09/2009 19:47

Was she a mumsnetter, do you think? Will she turn up on this thread and get all huffy?

Nobody should leave a loo in that state though. UTGSN, of course.

OrmIrian · 25/09/2009 19:52

If you have explosive diarrhoea you should stop eating dynamite.

HecatesTwopenceworth · 25/09/2009 19:57

did she think you wouldn't notice?

The evil part of me is thinking up ways you could drop stuff into conversations "Looks like we'll have a splattering of rain today..."

(am joking btw, not suggesting you be rotten enough to actually do such a thing!)

ThePhantomPlopper · 25/09/2009 19:57

Nope not a mumsnetter, definitely not.

OP posts:
ThePhantomPlopper · 25/09/2009 19:59

I couldn't mention it to her, not even in subtle digs, the whole experience is far too raw ATM, I'd end up sobbing

junglist1 · 25/09/2009 20:13

Hecates you're a joker!

ConsiderTheArmchair · 25/09/2009 20:16

Shiney you would be cross if a friend did a normal poo in your toilet?
Do you give your friends a list of rules when they pop round for coffee?
