I have flushed a number of times and the water just fills the bowl and takes hours to flow away, tryed hot kettle water, even drain unblocker. Is there any ideas without having to buy a plunger. Is there something fizzy or something like bi carb or something in the kitch cupboard? I have not put the brush in there yet either... I havent wanted to.....I won't go into detail

I think this is more my problem at the moment, I tend to try and fix things myself first, but then if all fails bring in the big boys with their big rods lol
If you do use a wire coat hanger be careful not to scratch the pan. Wrap something around it.

Seriously dude, buy a plunger. Use a bowl or something to get rid of excess water and plunger the heck out of it. I learned that once upon a time.
You have'nt got a mop to spare ... you dont want to get your hands dirty... sounds like you want someone else to do it for nothing..!
But as all your ''other'' toilets work, it propably is'nt your drain blocked ... do you live in a mansion..?
Phone some drain cleaning company, and ask for a quote ... all of a sudden you will realise that the cost of a new mop is pennies compared to their call out charge.

If you are still feeling adventureous, wrap a carrier bag around the head of the mop and tie a knot around the handle. Tape it in place so you dont loose the carrier, then use that as a plunger ... it does work.

Other option is use one of your other toilets ... and ignore it.
Tie two tesco bags to the end of your toilet brush (adding bleach to to the water to clean as well) and then use as a makeshift plunger - move it up and down about 10 times This will created a vacuum that will clear the blockage and the toilet will flush properly again.
