Well our downstairs toilet was blocked and full of crap, then i go downstairs to find its not blocked and the bowls been cleaned out, everybody in the house denies all acusations of flushing the toilet and unblocking it, and nobody can figure out how the toilet flushed and cleaned itself. My theory is the toilet paper blocking it sortof disintegrated and the water eventually pushed it down the pipe. Would this have been feasible and if so, would there have been some kind of flow from the cistern to clean the bowl out as well??

Could have been some sort of suction created from around the u bend

If it was full of crap and toilet paper ( if filled up to the rim) then its possible for the weight of the mess to dislodge a slight blockage and disappear down the sewer pipe as for cleaning at the same time in afraid not, unless it been flushed and wiped

This as happened to me, it the toilet paper gets to a point where it just tears under pressure and gives.

I agree, those little blighters are always climbing up through toilets. Best leave the lid down in future, and buy a heavy lid!

Yeah I always put a paving slab on mine, but some of the big ones even manage to move that !
