Tess, I know what you mean, and that is why I said back in the beginning to ask the man if he had been pouring anything down there before Pesta started putting more chemicals down.
I thought it looked like creosote or similar.

Re: Dirty Toilet
Like you, I had no idea what that scene was about so Googled.
This is the best bit:
'Thankfully, in reality the bathroom set was anything but grimy. “It was meticulously clean,” remembers the director, adding that all the faecal-looking elements were, in fact, different kinds of chocolate. “The set smelled really sweet — delicious, really, kind of like a confectionery. You could have licked the chocolate right off the bowl.”

Quick Google ...
'Bleach rapidly degrades in the presence of light and when mixed with water. Bleach solutions require a full 10 minutes of contact time to ensure complete disinfection. If bleach solution evaporates in less than 10 minutes, a greater volume of solution should be applied'.

Re: Dirty Toilet
Yesterday, Miss Madam did the bathroom. I did the kitchen and part of the bedsitting area.She did a sterling job in the bathroom. Clean loo, shower, sink, floor tiles. She said it wasn't too difficult to scrape the stuff off with bleach and brillo pads
No pictures of the clean loo I'm afraid. She forgot to take them, maybe she took some today, I don't know. We're not speaking at the mo. 
What a fractious day yesterday was between us. Our different ways, methods, priorities got in the way, as usual. The heat and humidity didn't help, coupled with only two small opening lites in windows, constantly boiling kettles of water (no hot water in the kitchen area) adding to the humidity. Just so much CRAP everywhere. Still is.
Anyway, here endeth the dirty loo saga.
Full stop.

Featured snippet from the web
Bleach can expire. After a shelf life of six months, bleach starts to degrade. Even in its original bottle, bleach becomes 20 percent less effective as each year goes by. Bleach mixed with water at a 1:9 ratio (i.e. 10 percent bleach) is potent for about a day (it's more unstable in its diluted form).13 Feb 2006''
