No toilet


No toilet
Originally uploaded by jan_andrea.
This is what happens when your kids are in the bathroom alone, which previously has not been a problem, and one of them decides to launch a toy boat just as the other is flushing. At least the plumber was able to remove the boat from the toilet, so we don't have to buy a new toilet (which, in the landlord's preferred color, is $$$), but we will have been two nights without an upstairs bathroom, and damnit, getting up and having to walk downstairs in the middle of the night to pee is a first-world discomfort I'd rather do without.

Just a hole in the floor? You could use that if you had to (LOL!) I think they call that a "turkish toilet" :^)

You might want to plug up the hole with something that won't fall in, or cover it with a bucket--don't want sewer gasses to come bubbling up and stinking up the joint (heard that tip on a home improvement show once upon a time).

I'm curious why the toilet was taken out of the immmediate area. Couldn't he just pull out the boat and replace the toilet? Or did it have to go to the shop for boat extraction surgery?
