Our toilet's currently blocked at the moment. Without this simple device I am reduced to something akin to a jibbering wreck. I've had it all going on, hot water, bleach, even shoving my arm down the U-bend (not a recommended experience). But to no avail. I can only hope there's somewhere with a public urinal of some cleanliness available on a Sunday

To give a topic, have you ever had to really really REALLY do "something" but were just unable to do so, and how did you cope?
