    Toilet flushing- dirty water
    I flush the toilet and the water is clear/clean, then around an hour later there is dirty water in the bowl.

    I have chucked a couple of bucket loads of water down the toilet and it drains away fine, so doesn't appear to be blocked, but the dirty water is still coming back- how/why could this be?

    There doesn't appear to be a bad smell.

    Thanks for your help.
