That’s what nearly happened when a tiny little bit of plastic broke off inside our cassette toilet. Obviously we had been getting up far too many times in the middle of the night, and it finally gave way! Oh dear, what to do?
Robin wasn’t too sure what the exact nature of the problem was, only that the plastic slide that opens and closes wasn’t working any more. So the cassette was removed, emptied, and well cleaned, only to find that all those bits and pieces were still intact. But what about that white plastic tube thing hanging down, something’s not quite there. A wire hook went through a eye in the plastic mechanism and this is what opened and closed the flap in the toilet cassette. That’s when he noticed that half of the the circular hole had broken away. Clutching the broken piece in his hand, he went down to our local caravan yard to find out if a replacement was readily available. Thank goodness – there was one in stock, and the price seemed ridiculously cheap. But why argue, we both had visions that we may have to buy a complete new toilet cassette, perhaps. (Or, heaven’s forbid, a new caravan)
A tiny bit snapped away and it doesn’t work anymore
Hole on the end has broken away
So everything is fixed, the toilet cassette is back in place, all ready for our next trip away. Thank goodness for that.
