We pooed worms

My dp found a worm in the toilet bowl.
It is 4-5 cm long, red brown in colour.

It could come from any of us. Me, him, our two kids.

It is alive, and moving. It is now in a plastic box.

I have googled, but am none the wiser.
I am literally bricking it, what could it be?

ps none of the common intestinal worms in the UK look like that - roundworm are paler.

my mum once found a frog sitting in the downstairs loo which must have come up the pipes. in shock she just quickly flushed and off it went, off on it's travels.

wonder what her gp would have made of that, turning up with a stool sample and a frog in a tupperware box Grin
