"Clare... It's an emergency..."

I came home from a hard day at school to hear a weirdly loud, drill-like sound coming from our toilet. When I looked round the door, what can only be politely described as "brown sludge", started fountaining out of the bowl.

Not pleasant and pretty scary as it started to leak out of the bathroom onto the carpet!!!!

It turned out the plumber was testing the pipes out in the downstairs flat.... It took me an hour and a half to clean up (obviously I had time to take a photo for the blog) and the flat still smells disgusting.

I apologise if anyone is offended by the above photo... (the toilet not the one of me cleaning....)
