Water saving devices

[237SJ]

I have just gone on a water meter and was thinking of getting an in-cistern device. Either a hippo or other device would do. The bathroom was installed in 2004 and according so according to Thames Water, I don`t need anything at all. My sister has new bathrooms in her house and she uses water saving devices in her cisterns. Would it matter if I put one in? The hippo saves up to 2.5 ltrs and the non-specified water saving device saves 1 ltr per flush.

TRT - it can be green if you have eaten a lot of spinach.

Lol, boxtops. And Eddie, I can`t do "no 2 " at work because I work on aeroplanes and we don`t have water in the toilets.! It`s not possible to be discreet on an aircraft, although that doesn`t seem to bother the male passengers. When they have to go, they have to go!

No, but I can do a catering offload sometimes!

True story ... last summer I got a call out. The lady lived in a large detached house on a private estate. Most of the houses sell for £1-2 million.
Her wine rack had fallen of the garage wall, and most of the bottles had smashed.
When I'd sorted the wine rack.. she said ''do you know anything about toilets''.
I said I do plumbing repairs and would help if I could.
I asked what was wrong , she said 'come and have a look'.
As soon as I entered the house I could smell the problem.
She then told me she flushes only once day, so as to save on her water bill.
A quick glance into the offending pan confirmed my suspicion ... more turds than you could shake a stick at. Infact some of them had their heads above the water.
''Oh no no no, it's not my sort of job'' I said.... and quickly made a getaway through a cloud of flies.

When they are climbing out of the pan you dont stop to count them... or even ask where they came from ... believe me..!

Aw Eddie - one healthcare place I worked, there was a large A1 wall chart on the wall, showing colours, sizes and shapes, for the nurses to describe on patients' records. It was in the dining room....

Me too Welsh. I`m listening to my local radio station which is playing "You`ll never find another love like mine" by Lou Rawles and I`m going to bed so that I can bask in the glory that is AB (and if that statement doesn`t make one want to puke I don`t know what would) Night folks x

[boxtops]

That certainly looks familiar, Eddie!

Bleah..... I think I must go to bed, adieu folks, I leave you to your scatology!
