Contingency planning

A contingency plan is one that gets you out of shit. Well, in the US, they have a contingency plan for all but shit. Let me clarify. Our toilet started overflowing today and there was almost nothing we could do. There was no mori or water outlet on in the bathroom floor and the flush did not have a tap which we could close off. No contingency plan!!! Well, we just pulled up the ball valve in the flush and have it hanging by a ruubber band. Our good nights sleep depends on that rubber holding through till the morning when the repairman comes along.
