Cheshire cat Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 Well....... If you've got a cassette loo ours used to burp and replacing the cassette solved the problem. I'm not suggesting you do that but the fault lies with the cassette rather than the loo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllanC Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 Perhaps you might consider a change of diet and give the dog toilet training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllanC Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 And there was me thinking about the smile on your face when you find your pooch sitting on the toilet in the morning reading the paper. Bet that would cheer you up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil2 Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 You should be the one feeling guilty for slapping that poor dog. At least you owned up. We've had four rescue dogs, all of them have needed months, nay years, of patience care and attention, our second dog took six months to become properly house trained she started off a basket case but became the perfect companion. Sorry, here endeth the lesson. Boating is a love/hate thing anyone who claims they love every minute is an imbecile. Life is all about light and shade, summer and winter, highs and lows. Too many people expect to be happy all the time these days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bizzard Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 Demonstration is needed here, to teach the doggy to wee outside. Choose a nice leafy tree or a smelly lampost in the high street. Command the dog to sit and watch you. Depending on the gender of the dog, ether cock your leg up at the tree or lampost or squat. This should work wonders with your doggy, never to wee on the mat again. My dad named his dog Sooner, sooner do it on the mat than go outside, until my mum did the demonstration ''as described above'' in the back garden using a peeony bush. Hope this helps.

bizzard Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 Now for the gurgling lav. It needs back flushing. Call in the fire brigade, this is the kind of practice they really enjoy, almost as much as releasing ladies toes stuck up a bath tap. Seal off the lav compartment really well, and put the lid down, just in case clip peg on nose. Remove pump out main cap on the deck,''the big one'' leaving the rinse out one intact, removal of this one will destroy the cure. Instruct a fireman to stick his high pressure hose into the pump out orifice, start the appliance up and turn it on, WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH!!!!!!!!!. Job done. The brigade are usually content with a small contribution towards their benevolent fund for these little services. Hope this helps too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would add to double check no one has snuck in for a quick sit while fireman is sorting out his hose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NB Lola Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 Ok, lets cheer you up. I am sitting outside a shoppin centre in Valencia, sipping a cold lager whilst my wife shops. You must feel blessed where you are at and cannot be tempted by an ice cold beer in temperatures north of 22c. So, by feeling sorry for me, you realise how cheery you really are!

No problem there, joint cards and I trust her with my life and our bank balance. Anyhow, I spent more than she did just buying a van lid! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having the boat down wind of the BBQ though just ends up with it being full of smoke Mind you that might mask the smell of the loo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
