Do you flush..or not flush...the loo after every visit?

[MintChocChippyMinton]

Just being nosey...because i prefer a fresh bowl.

but it reeks! I do my nut if one of the kids forget to flush. As for flushing at night the kids use the downstairs loo, as they keep forgetting to close the door when flushing.

Chippy, ours is a sort of compost toilet (out in a shed, so you don't hang around in the winter )

do you live in the past Trilby?

Thought you must be composting.

Not sure if I should be going "eurgh" or "that's really impressive" or both?

I wouldn't fancy that.

Why ever not Hillary?

I'm single handedly saving the planet don'tcha know

Um, so you definately don't want to look down then trilby?

Dont get me wrong Trilby I do have an organic household but some things I'm not prepared to part with & getting a cold arris is one of them

Well done you though.

PMSL at this thread. For the record, don't flush at every wee cos I wee about once every hour cos I drink so much water. The wee doesn't smell either cos it is mostly just water.

What a lovely thought.

I have told dd1 that she must flush each time because she uses so much toilet paper and, for some reason, seems unable to cut down on the amount she uses (just stands there winding it around her arm, round and round and round and...) she has blocked the loo 3 times in the past month! i am sure she has permanently buggered it up!

I can't believe anyone actually uses a toilet these days! They are an ecological nightmare. In our gaff, myself, dh and dd simply smear our faeces and urine over the walls of whichever room we happen to be in when the need arises.

You're making me laugh Miss

Cold? Cold?.......tis not just bloody cold.....I'm actually sitting on ice sometimes!

.....and going out after dark involves putting on layers of clothes, finding the sodding torch that hasn't been put back where it should have been, and finding a lighter/matches to light the candles once you're out there.

I'm hard me .

We do use toilet paper though and not ripped up newspaper.

Gotta be quote of the week "Do you live in the past Trilby?"

I flush after everything... mainly because DS can be a tad inquisitive still

If it's yellow, then it's mellow
If it's brown flush it down.

We have a special flush on our loo, with a little flush for wee and a big flush for pooh.

My DS's don't flush, but their urine doesn't usually land in the loo anyway.

nope, not here.
we're on a water meter, so its only when absolutely necessary ( not for pees) usually do a quick flush when someone's coming over for a visit

There was a woman on the radio today who was MENTAL about toilets.

She said if she has people round, she tells them to go to the loo before they come over, as they're not allowed to use hers. And she won't give them tea or coffee because it's "minging" and stains the cups.

I'm guessing she doesn't have many visitors.

She called it "a tinkle" as well. I bet she has a miffy or somesuch euphemism for her vulva too.

that reminds me of a diddy that parent's friends had up in their cottage

if you sprinke when you tinkle
be sweet and wipe the seat

(vom emoticon)!!

I once knew a German woman who was obsessed about saving water. When her DH's friends came round, after a few beers, they would urinate on her garden to save water.

TrinityRhino -no I don't live in the future, I wish I did, I'd probably be less tired - Ideal Standard do them. They are bloody expensive and standard loo seats don't fit them. WISH we'd realised this before we had DD - how the hell do you do toilet training if you can't fit a training seat? Gaffer tape?

Could be anal fissures

A good way to save water is to wear adult size disposable diapers. LOL

Tinker, Franny and Aitch would approve

Hunker, I bet she tinkles with her twinkle

Hunker, perhaps she 'pays a penny'

I used to flush even after just a fart LOL
