A blocked ladies toilet which has caused an almighty stink for Kings Langley parish councillors has finally been fixed.

Councillors Howard Button and Gerry Angiolini spent two hours on Saturday unclogging the troublesome toilet in Kings Langley’s parish hall in Charter Court.

Councillor Gerry Angiolini said: “It wasn’t a particularly messy business, but Councillor Button and I managed to flush away the problem, using his power hose.

“We’ll be monitoring the situation, so that the toilet doesn’t become blocked again.”
