Pump out not working

Cant beat an Elsan Bristol for simplicity. Very heavy when full. At least we dont have to use that black stuff as a toilet chemical now. I can remember when splashback was a serious problem on the more sensitive areas. An old pub we bought some years ago had the metal elsans in the public toilets. I did wonder where several centuries of human waste had gone ,Probably on the vegetable garden. Many lock cottages had the loo built over the lock bypass.

Many elsan points are connected to the mains by pumps - ours blocks periodically with stuff people have put into their toilets then emptied.

 

Anything that can't break down causes huge problems in the main sewage system too so shouldn't be put in - blockages of mass od wet wipes and tampons and condoms and cotton buds and cooking fat have to be dealt with by someone, somewhere.

Seen on my train today:
