'Mum! Wake up quick! The toilet's blocked. It's flooding ...
... And I'm desperate for a poo!'
I'm sure there are worse ways to start the day, but right now I'm having trouble thinking of any.

I was just taking a swig from a can of coke when I read that and now it's sprayed all down the front of my jumper and over my jeans.
Ha! You'll look well in place if you come round here.
Phoned emergency repairs and they can't get here 'til between 12 & 6. Pass the cork ...

My condolences.
Fortunately, I don't have a can of Coke in my hands. I hope your toilet is now fixed.
Eek - how awful! Hope it's fixed now. Top Bloke had a similarly dire awakening the other day when I decided to run an early morning bath and the boiler went BANG.
Leslie - swimming upstream has been done but I love the taking the plunge suggestion. Every so often I forget that anyone other than me even notices my labels ...
Pierre - indeed it is. A long story and I'm sure everyone will be relieved to hear the details are NOT going to be posted. Coke swiggers can rest easy.
Zin - hate to be competitive, but I reckon mine wins hands down. But then I would, wouldn't I? Who feels it, knows it!
