    my recommendation would be to bite the bullet, get down to the plumbers merchant and replace the whole toilet. £50 on a new pan and cistern, or £50 on glue?

    In other words, how do I hide this knackered bog from the other half before she comes in at 5.30. Put it all back together and use super glue, smooth brilliant white toothpaste into the cracks, wait until she uses the loo and you hear a shout of "Oh No!!!" enter the room in a blind panic and then say these words..........

    "How on earth have you broken the loo?, Its a good job I love you you clumsy begger, come and sit down and I will fix it tomorrow, pass me a beer honey"

    Job done.









    Dont let her read this page.
