Help...how do I clean my loo with natural products

I use Ecover toilet cleaner and I have obviously let things slip recently as the bend of my loo is revolting. I seem to remember reading about a mixture of two things (vinegar, bicarb, borax, lemons...something along those lines) that fix and react when you pour them into the loo.

I may have to just put rubber gloves on and get my hand right down there and scrub otherwise.

I was clearing my food cupboards the other day and found a jar of pickling vinegar that I hadn't used. My toilet was a tad digusting, so I poured the whole lot down, left it for a few hours and all my scummy limestone came off, absolutely brillant. Nothing else just vinegar.
Am sure you could use a combination but it worked super for me.

Great...thanks. Although I was lookng forward to watching the fizz of the two things reacting...whatever they were.

At least I'd see the 'fizz' I was after.
