| I think the best way would be to get a drain unblocker solution to help you get rid of the smell, or a shed load of bleach maybe? No idea how to get more out, I'd have got a man in I think x |

| or maybe try flushing it with loads of water in the hope whatever is blocking it shifts itself along. If you have a hose pipe maybe try it with that x |

| Yak! I'd have man in too (usually my lovely dad). I usually buy a load of cheap bleach a couple of times a year and empty a full bottle down each drain.( the best time is if you're going away, so it can work without getting flushed away). |

| Liquid Drano..or..you can now buy a canister of compressed air if you dont want to use chemicals. Sink traps and drains are the most disgusting things I have ever seen. Defo use bleach to disinfect after. xxx |
