My mums neighbour has a problem
1960’s council house with original high flush cistern in black.
The flush lever is held by a metal u shaped thing & it’s broken so the lever wiggles about.
Any thoughts on this small part?
Cheers all

No. What I need isn’t the actual plastic lever it’s a piece of metal that sits in the groove on the cistern & keeps the lever in place when the lid goes on |

Nothing like the satisfying, thunderous Niagara like rush of water you get from a proper, old school high-level cistern. The cling-ons don't stand a chance.

Amazing force of water in the old high level cistern, I recall my Granny using the outdoor lav as a washing machine when her twin-tub went on the blink!! |

After Brexit all those fancy continental flush valves will have to be taken out as we return to the good ole high level British bog!  |

So, with flush valves & low capacity cisterns is to save water, but you need to flush the bog 20 times to get rid of the shite & skid marks!!
Here in Jockoland we’ve got one of the highest rainfalls in Europe,
But we need to save water???!!!😟😟😟
Fucking EU, thankfully we’re out!! Well, if BoJo gets the finger out!!
