Just spent the last half hour unblocking a sink. Had to dismantle the U bend section to dislodge and remove the compacted sludge that had built up. Yuck!

Funny how things turn out.

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

I am always late to discover things but I found this today. Even bad news is not as bad when you read this site

Mine needs doing but I have a bottle of that drain unblocker. Two liquids that mix as you pour it, dissolves the organic waste. Easier than pissing about with the u bend and getting black crap all over you. Done that in the past, now I'd rather spend the fiver. Whatever, it is quite satisfying when it has worked and the water runs straight down the plughole again. Little victories.

I bung a bit of caustic soda down the plughole about once a week. Never had a blocked sink waste.

Lol - it's shades of 'garlic press-gate'... There are ways of avoiding that, you know!
Welcome to the world of the sink plughole strainer; simply select your 'weapon' of choice, from the selection here, and fit it: https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=si...GtHc8Ael1p64Ag
We use one of these chaps: https://tapstore.com/basket-strainer...yABEgK_vPD_BwE The top section is removable, which catches any large pieces of food waste, and which you subsequently tip out and empty into the bin, allowing only liquid and the very smallest particles of waste through.
Nothing goes down our sink plug hole that's bigger than a bread crumb! Problem solved *at source*, and no more blocked sinks - happy days
Marco.

Just had to throw away a pair of Ted Baker boxer shorts because the elastic in the waistband has perished.
They only lasted 19 years. I shall be writing a letter of complaint to Mr Baker, fully expressing my annoyance and frustration.
