RE: Toilet Flushing post SHTF
you'll probably find it'd lift manhole covers etc first as they are at a lower level than your loo

similar to what can happen in downpours when drains can't cope.

also the comment about sewage works "stopping"

i'll need to do a bit of digging, but i do know someone who who can maybe get the info, i know if there is a breakdown, our local wastewater treatment plant discharges straight to the north sea.

though between our house and the treatment plant is a pumping station, but this is at a very low level near a stream, i dunno if they discharge to the stream in the event of a breakdown, i'll ask the question though

it also is a great idea to use water from a local source, even if it's a stagnant pond, to flush the loo, it might not be "the big one" and you don't wanna start needlesly sh!tting in the back garden lol
in some cases, those with the least to say, say the most.....
