Lavatory joke NOT (yukkie)

I live in a house with old sewerage works that connect about 50 houses waste altogether.
In my neighbours garden is the main juntion to the road sewarge pipes
The juntion is so old, also the miles of pipework that it blocks and my toilet is always the first to be affected.
I won't go into any gory detail but needless to say, we can't flush or we overflow!!!
This happens every few months and guess who has to pay to have this dern junction jetted to clear it.
I am taking imodium just so I can't go!!
My husband uses the neighbour opposites loo but because of my agoraphobia I can't.
We also can't afford to have the mains unblocked.
Any one got a potty? Because I'm going that way fast!!
I wish it wasn't me that was going round the bend.
What can I do? any suggestions please?

What's sick is all the toilet repair ads that just popped up on the sides of the screen. Thanks DS!

Be careful Dearest, not going is what started my sister off with irritable bowel syndrome. Can you get onto the water board about it? You shouldn't have to pay for this everytime it happens. Explain what keeps happening & they may be tempted to re-new the old pipes. If they don't do that or start a petition if it's effecting all of your neighbours too. Get hubby to go round with it

the watr board are responsible for the road pipes only. They will do nothing. The only thing we can do is wait until it reaches my neighbours toilet and blocks hers, but that can take over a week.
It's then that we can have it done for free because her house belongs to the local council.
Irritable bowel is an old friend of mine.
It's me who is bl88dy irritable at the moment!! LOL

LOL that's so cheap, the flight to the UK would make a dent in his profit ROFL xx
It costs around $400 = 200 for mine as it has to be jetted and everything in the UK is so expensive.

You have to laugh - it's the only way to deal with this crap.

Here's a solution, a port- a potty

Pool Side Toilet
Use an Envirolet composting toilet to keep your house dry. No plumbing

At least it would give the neighbours a laugh!!
I'll take coloured toilet paper with me and wave it around like a flag so they can all watch.
Only about 9 hours until nightfall!
