best way to tell people about the weakness of a boat toilet

[magnetman]

How do you tell them what not to put in it?

 

I saw this sticker under the lid at Hampton Court station toilets.

 

Would it contain enough information

 

 

Oops picture didn't work - must fix that

Very good.

[Heffalump]

Ha - very good! I used to tell hirers, "If you haven't eaten it don't put it down - other than TP!"

[magnetman]

Can you see the picture OK? I can't..

Our old boat had a sign that said much the same.

 

Then some smart Alec popped up on here and asked 'did that mean you couldn't flush toilet paper down it because you havent eaten that~?

 

Some people.

[magnetman]

Oh yes I can now

[Guest]

Working for me. Are you on a slow connection?

[magnetman]

I was considering "please don't put anything in this toilet that has not been in your mouth"

 

Or would that make people feel ill.

Yes. Working for me too now

[Drayke]

If it hasn’t been through you don’t put it in the toilet except toilet paper.

Make a variation of this:

I have been to places abroad where you cant flush the paper, they have a bin for it.

So have I. Our Narrowboat wasn't one of them though.

Which is why my OH refuses to revisit Greece!

Greek toilet plumbing

My last salty boat had a simple sign above the pump-out loo.

 

IF YOU CLOG THIS UP YOU'LL
BE THE ONE UNCLOGGING IT
BY HAND!

We are very blunt about this issue.

We tell people to remember the 3 P's.......Poo, Pee and Paper only.

Greek pipes are smaller in diameter than the ones in UK.

We have a bin for paper. Only for number ones though - number two paper definitely goes down the loo! Number one paper is burnt on the stove - double win - less room taken up in the loo plus free heat

That sign's on every loo on all the Cross Country and Virgin trains and has started to appear on South West too. Still makes me giggle when I use them.

In which case how did they manage to flush their entire economy down the toilet?

I thank you. I see it now

[twbm]

In small pieces over many years.

[Murflynn]

in the countries that don't allow paper to be flushed away, generally there is a (LEFT) hand-held or bidet style spray that is used to clean the offending areas.

 

the paper is only provided to dry the area, and to dry your left hand.

 

Muslim and some other traditions.

 

probably much more hygienic than wot we do.
