After many, many years of moaning, complaining and whinging, by yours truly, we finally have a new toilet cistern and seat. The seat was not important, but came as part of the package.
The old one had been driving me demented, as it would not flush properly, and I had to tip a bucket of water down it each time. Grrrr!
It is an ecologically designed system, and has two buttons. The old one had been here for 32 years.
We bought it at Bunnings on Monday, and you should have heard the shenanegans the sales man and The Man About The House carried on with!! They were trying to outdo each other on whether this one would fit or not. The sales man was a bit arrogant, as he had no idea what our old cistern looked like, and therefore could not know if it would fit. He assured us there would be no dramas, even after I told him how old it was. He said he had fitted one in his house and it is over 100years old. Big deal!
I just hope that The Man About The House is not thinking of fobbing me off with this as my Christmas present. The proverbial will hit the fan if he tries!!
Watch this space.

And if the old man saved money on the deal he'd be feeling quite flush!
Ha, ha, ha, ha!Very apt.
I am happy to report, my spouse did not try to fob me off with the new dunny. He gave me some money.
