    It might be stuck in the trap area.

    I'd actually try to find it so it doesn't cause toilet problems. :eek:

    This unfortunate incident is not an exclusive one. Lately I've noticed a veritable epidemic of toilet related brush mishaps around various shaving forums. Not sure whats causing this problem..maybe it's just an occupational hazard. Sorry for your loss and ya maybe you should try to somehow fish it out to prevent blockage...

    As a housing inspector in a low income area of the city, I've seen EVERYTHING flushed down a toilet. Most of the time it's diapers or clothing or cooking grease that cause a sewer backup. I'm sorry that you lost your brush.

    Do Wee Scots only fall in potty chairs?

    Hersh,

    If you cannot retrieve it or if you do and the brush us ruined, shoot me a PM with your address. I have a very good Omega Mighty Midget I will send you. A man should not have to go long without a brush.

    I say you grab his (or her) favorite toy and flush it, see how he (or she) likes it. :signs136: If it was a boy, when he begins to shave you should find an old beat up brush to wrap up and give to him--- tell him you finally recovered the one he flushed all those years ago. Sorry for your loss.

    Ah, children and the wonderment of the toilet that magically makes objects of certain sizes go away!!! They cannot resist seeing it go by by. I have also noted that dogs and cats will also tear up brushes from time to time as well.

    Sorry about the loss of your brush.

    My pup tore up my Whipped Dog silver tip brush. Somehow he opened my closet door, went past all the shoes and went for the brush.

    I'm sorry about your brush but you've got to love kids. You never know what they are going to next. I remember years ago when my son cut a hole through his bed room wall so he and his sister could talk to each other. I got so upset I had to go outside and take a five mile walk. They're both grown and moved away now. I would take an axe and chop the whole wall down now to have them back and be able to watch them grown up again.

    I doubt you would care very much for the old one now even if you could retrieve it.

    Old Colonel Crapper would surely be amazed how his invention is used these days.
