You need to be careful that you only put low wet-strength tissue paper down a toilet, as it is designed to break down really quickly. Anything that is supposed to hold its shape when wet, like nappies, wet wipes, sanitary towels etc etc, should be disposed of some other way. Even something as generic as the blue rolls sold as workshop wipes will quickly block the plumbing.

I had to keep going back to unblock a manhole because a tenant was chucking cat litter down the bog. When I asked why, she said with being three floors up it was a pain to go up and down the stairs and freely admitted that she scraped all her dinner plates into the toilet as well.

I refrained from the 'cutting out the middleman' quip.
