Did you see it on the news?
YUK do not put fat or wipes down the loo.

Can't promise that. If I eat some fatty foods, some will more than likely end up in the sh..t house!

The powers that be know where its coming from,they need to pull their finger out and do something about it.

It is likely that a fair proportion of that fat is coming from the 'washing up' of the general public!

I'd say restaurants and fast food outlets,i can't see the smaller ones paying to have waste oils taken away.

Not from mine! I use Fairy Liquid.

Why do people automatically assume that wet wipes and other such products are flushable?? There is a proportion of cotton in these products and cotton isn't flushable. Also fat down the drains is not a good thing.
If I fry anything I wait until it's cooled down and put it in something like an empty tin and then pour it onto the rubbish in a bag and it goes out in the wheelie bin eventually.

I had trouble with the drains a while ago and had to get United Utilities out, they found something the size of a small football blocking a p-trap in the main drain at the top of my road, I wish I had taken a photo...
All sorted now and not had a problem since
