Hello @MDT @tonys @TAB @Meowmy @Bill16 I had a blocked loo this morning. Thank goodness I had a toilet plunger which I got from Bunnings a while back. Its saved me a hefty plumbing expense. Its worth getting one as I can't afford a plumber right now. Anyway was happy my loo was flushing ok again. If anyone is interested they don't cost much and can save you future expenditures and inconvenience. Should have bought it years ago. Anyway saved money today just by having a plunger. Its worth getting definitely!

Yeah @TAB the toilet plungers have a larger rubber suction cup and a longer stick handle. I have a plunger for my bathroom sink which I've had for years. Never migrated onto a toilet plunger until recently. I used to put hot water mixed with detergent in the toilet bowl. Sometimes it worked sometimes it didn't. Here is the one I got. It ended up saving me a call out. It stores easily as it has a container vessel.

Ha Ha @Bill16 🙂 I've called plumbers out a few times with my loo over the years but decided I would invest in a plunger. It was a good idea afterall with my budget. Have had big expenses with pest removal
@TAB yes I have a bathroom plunger which I got from coles or woolies or something. Its lasted forever. Dont know why I did not do loo plunger earlier. Its just so simple. I wonder if the supermarket has them? I think I mentioned mine was from Bunnings
