h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I went baack to te drs yesteday as ive been really wheezy n wasnt sure the infectin hed treated me for was fully gone. He tpld me ot was just the heat n to take extra preventer. Fine. I get home n set about using spirit of salts to unblock the sink in the bathroom n descale the toilet , its strong stuff n i managed to breathe in a good lungful of the fumes

Anyway, 430ish thismorning i woke up with a bad asthma atack it wouldnt settle so after about 10 mins of trying to calm it down, at least it felt that long! ged called an ambulance n off to casualty was i whisked. 2 nebulisers, lot of oxygen an annoying canula thing in my arm for bloods, a chest xray and a very sore arterial wrist bllood test (still hurts now) i was sent home.

Couldnt be arsed waiting for someone to come n ytake out the thing in my atrm so i picked up a bandage off a trolly on the way outn tookk it out myself in the carpark whilst waiting for my taxi! made a lovely mess with spurting blood that did ..oops.. but it soon stopped swith the bandage n i was home to a worried josh n ged by 8 am.

so folks, dont clean the toilet

Why don't you just use Domestos like the rest of us?

cos cos erm

It did look like it needed some hardcore cleaning! Almost, gasp, studenty.

yup so after trying allsorts of normal ckeaner n i donned the rubbe gloc=ves, got out the hard stuff n landed myselfn casualty..its still not lilly white

whats wrong with my fingers! they wont press the keys tell them to

Parozone toilet cleaner (removes 100% limescale) keeps my loo pristine! Best loo cleaner I've ever known, and I've tried them all!

ahh but their was afew uyears when i couldnt be arsed to do muchat all with depression let alone clean the loo so thers a lot of damage to reverse!

Have you considered just getting a new toilet instead?

RF

that would involve croydon council who take 25 years to do anything on a good day

its not that bad, n an awful lot beter now, im just fussing as geds mum is coming overfr a\a bbq at the weekendn shes notbeen here before

still not feeling quite right my friend who visited this afternon very sweetly called a little while ago to see if i was ok on my own (geds out today) bless her. if it doesnt properly settle by friday ill go back t te drs. Hope im gonna be ok tonight n no repeats, it can be really frightening.

Similar situations here, once the temp hits 35+ I get seriously wheezy. As far as the bog goes; i am a firm beleiver in NO chemicals whatsoever, but, despite the embarassment factor, instruct all visitors to Use the Loo Brush provided & if necessary flush twice.

This does at least ensure someone else cleans the bog; not you. And is good for the environment. Most of these vile chemical cleaning things have the power to destroy lung cells in their jolly little hunt for microbes found in poo. Poo is recycled food, but an inconvenient colour.

Anyway, it seems to work; i have a nice white bog bowl, ask the wretched cat, who drinks from it on occasions; whereas the viking technique of "do not flush if only passing water, but insert vile green stuff once a day" is browner in my opinion. I reckon mine's cleaner but we've just had a heated debate about this.

Awww, thank you for providing us with a topic for debate; we can never think of a subject to argue about.

welcome i'm sure

im hoping with a bit a bit of exrasteroid inhaler m lungs should settle back to normal in a day or to..shouldn't they?

Felling loads better now and thhe toilet is gleaming
