I hate plumbing. It is just dirty, hot and nasty

I finally tacked my slow drain with the snake and removing the trap. But, God I wish it was less intense of a workout in a confined space. I remember getting my snake oh over 25 years ago. It is a good snake, but I just hate all this. On the plus side I did save some quid if I managed to fix it. Otherwise, I will have to get the plumber with the fancy snake.

then climbing behind the dryer to remove the vent and suck lint and crap out of there is bad, too. I live in Humid Central, so it accumulates water like clock work. Never a pleasant job.

Nor is fixing a toilet. Been there, done that, not eager.
