| Re: Shit shit help. Every time I've ever needed to unblock a drain in a sink (I have a habit of just pushing chunks of food from pots, pans and plates down the plug hole with my thumb rather than fishing them out - so it usually needs unblocked every once in a while) or bath (hair) I've poured a jug of concentrated sodium hydroxide down there and it's worked perfectly.
You can buy it cheaply from chemists and the like (usually sold as "lye" or "drain cleaner"). Remember to add the crystals to the water and not the water to the crystals to prevent it bubbling up and rapidly heating and dissolving your face/hands. |

If your sink is built into a cupboard of some sort, open up the doors, or remove the front of the cupboard, or whatever … and you’ll see the waste trap. Quote:

I’m away into a meeting, you’ll have to go search the B&Q website or something.

| Re: Shit shit help. This thread title is misleading. I demand it get changed to 'Puke puke help' or alternatively someone should throw in a few Robb Idle jokes.

Drawing faces on eggs and placing bets on which ones will survive longest in the microwave has been a personal favourite since i was a kid.

Rach - glad you got it sorted but even thinking about this is making me ill  You may be starting a chain reaction here. Hope you are ok.
