Shut the toilet lid before you flush!!!

[ShinyHappyPurpleSeveredHeads]

..or you will be sending a fine, invisible aerosol spray of faecal matter (etc!) high into the air, and it lands on your towels, toothbrushes () and in fact everything!

Saw it on TV the other night.. they used an ultra violet light to show up where the aerosol spray landed each time somebody flushed without shutting the lid. Blleeeuuughhhh...

I had read about this before so already shut the lid.. but am now making everyone obsessed about it..

Just imagine.... no.. don't! [puke emoticon]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah freakout
god oyu lot need to get a life

Oh that's Mr Hanky the Christmas Poo from Southpark innit!

Oh go breath some aerosolated poo, fish face..

You can't talk.. you quite obviously have massive climaxes over table clothes and towel bales..!

Oh no this mans got poo on his bum!

Sorry I realise this is serious, please close the lid

tee hee

that's the good thing about having a sep toilet!

Oops this it the right like much funnier, if you are a bit sad like me !

Sorry I realise this is serious, please close the lid

Shiny - I am indeed very interested to know how to prevent myself and my family from getting stomach bugs. Don't get me wrong - I am not sneering at you. But I personally believe that our best chances of staying healthy involve a certain amount of exposure to everyday bugs thus allowing our immune system to be as strong as possible.

As for stomach bugs - I don't want to go into details, but there is a high possibility I can suppress the urge to vomit. Nevertheless, I still don't get many stomach bugs. The last one that went round the family made 3 out of my 4 children vomit and gave dh and I severe diarrhoea. It occurred over 2 years ago. My point being, I know when I get the bug, even if I don't vomit! but all this is beside the point. My first paragraph is my main argument.

I bet you use antibacterial sprays too don't you? Not a criticism (I use them too a bit) but another thing I know many scientists think we shouldn't be using as they take out too many ordinary bugs we need to be exposed to.

I use that bluey green coloured Cif stuff... it smells nice.. not sure if it's antibacterial.. hang on will check..

Cif Oxygel. No it's not antibacterial... do I get a brownie point?

Don't dishcloths harbour more germs than a toilet anyway !

Is that the only cleaning product you use? Check the others first before I award the brownie point!

I use the Cif stuff to spray the surfaces around daily, multi surface cleaner (Tesco own brand) to give the kitchen and bathroom a good scrub once a week. And bleach. That's it. I used to use antibac spray on high chairs years ago (Dettox) (because it said you should on the advert! ) but I too know about friendly bacteria and immune systems (comes of being mother of child with CF) so I stopped using it..

I still don't want to brush my teeth with poo particles...

But you don't rub your teeth with your dishcloth presumably LIZS...

Yes but the dish cloth goes on dishes whcih you then eat off...

Not in my house. I use those spongey things with green stuff on one side and I re use them because I wash them daily.

I shut the lid because it looks tidier
