OMG, it's Basil the Bog Monster!

Spiders on the loo seat (they've also been known to hide under the rim) is bad enough....... more reason for a flush before using the loo!

I'll be having nightmares about rats, spiders, snakes & cane toads.

Our water bill is going to skyrocket

However good our pipes are, suspect there will be a lot of constipation for a couple of days. :-(

The main reason this happened is probably a broken pipe between their house and the main sewer.

Our system of 'U' bends is designed to prevent this which is does in more than 99.9% of households.
