Bathplug Substitutes!

For some reason my bath has an extremely large plughole, which we have lost the plug for. This wouldn't be a problem except our shower has just packed up, so we're having to have bucketbaths at the moment. I've checked B&Q but I can't find a plug the right size - they're all too small - where can we get one and what makes a good substitute for the meantime?

Chuck a plunger over it.

An old innertube (pushbike should do) then cut out to make an appropriate sized circle should do the job. You might need to push down on it a bit to get it to seal while the water first comes up over it.

A squash ball? , or just a sheet of rubber, or if you really want to rough it cut some hair off and bung it in the hole,

this ginger guy I lived with ages ago ALWAYS used to clog up the bathroom plug hole with his ginger erm 'hair'

Squash ball - every travelers' best friend Smile

When I went out to Russia, my language tutor advised me to take a squash ball because it would double up as a plug for sinks and baths whatever the size. Russians, it would appear, don't keep plugs as standard - so I found myself using the squash ball almost every day!

A screwed up lump of damp paper towel shoved into the plughole also works.
