Toilet Update

The upstairs toilet leaked from a crossthread,
Which meant long trips at night for me from my bed,
But its a better summer,
After out came a plumber,
And our life is now better it must be said.

Toilet trouble

An attempt at a more italian style, the volta is the point at which i have given up and have lost my enthusiasm for fiddling with a cistern and dripping pipe…

We had no flush in our upstairs toilet
The problem was not too hard to discern
We needed a new part in the cistern
A job not hard that we thought should be met
Even though the property is one that’s let
So repairs aren’t something we have to turn
But toilet function I did actually once learn
But this repair i would like to forget
It would be nice to be mended for spring
But I think it will be broken till summer
It is very possibly the most recent thing
That has now made me feel somewhat dumber
Maybe I should just to the phone now swing
And let it be done by an expert plumber
toilet and cat
We could all use a litter tray like cats do.
