How NOT to spend your Saturday Evening

[Jurgen]

Here you go Terry...how about a polite (well kinda ) little ditty to frame and place above the loo.

Stop!!
Before you sit!
The stuff you use….
To wipe ur ****….

Must be paper,
Not a wipe.
Nowt but paper…
Else I’ll gripe.

It just won’t flush;
It just gets stuck;
Caught in the macerator….
Then I’m ****ed!

So be a friend
Be a pal
No baby wipes please…
There’s a good gal.

I don't understand why they make baby wipes so indestructible ?
Surely a paper tissue would do the job ?

They look like they are made from a cotton type material - Well lesson learned and in future all non boater types will be stripped searched so I will need to choose my guests very carefully and make sure they pass the mirror test first

I've only had one baby wipe incident and got the thing out after fishing around with a length of wire with a small hook at the end and a winding motion. Going for a pump out first sucked the water out of the bowl (after I put my hand over the vent). It had me gagging but not having to strip it was a huge relief.

I now make a point of telling every new guest what not to put down it, have a sticker on the electric flush switch to the same effect and usually remind again verbally when I see someone heading for the head. With a smile of course!

As you've sorted it and it sounds like everyone had a good time(plumbing aside)I wouldn't mention it to your guest, for no other reason than to save her the embarrassment.

Whilst banning people from flushing baby wipes, tampons etc down the toilet it's important to give them an alternative.
We keep nappy sacks next to the toilet paper and show visitors where they are.
Having said that I have come across a few craftely hidden used nappy sacks when deep cleaning.

Well I suppose we could all reduce the risk by only inviting females who are over 55 years of age on board at last that would reduce some objects going down the pan but not all including wetwipes

I will buy a small bin or as Talulah said use a nappy sack but then someone may use this for a ....

There was a thread earlier somewhere about dissolvable baby wipes. Presumably they dissolve after a few minutes in water or something...
