Wait until the water drops to it's lowest level and then use a plunger on it, if you don't have a plunger use a mop, it should dislodge the blockage enough so it'll flush properly.

your ball cock washer needs replacing

you will have the plastic type or the metal plunge type

for now you can lower your ball to see if it stops it rising if not a washer is needed or could be blocked by a piece of dirt

if you have had the water off recently and turned it back on toilets usually get the dirt first as they fill up first

Sounds like a job for a stick. Have you had a particularly big poo recently? Or just overdoing it on the toilet paper?

on the road to nowhere in particular

Put your hand down and poke the poo with your fingers

I assume you mean the actual toilet and not the cistern. The toilet waste pipe is blocked, use the plunger as I said which should do the trick.

you can get a plunger from the £ shop, or a couple of quid from wilko.

Every house should have one.

A plumber will charge you around £100 to attend and use a CO2 pressure thingy which does the same job, so try yourself first with a plunger

Anything that will form an air tight seal will do, nip out and buy a plunger or a cheap mop, tescos or the like should have both.

I thin I read it wrong

if toilet not flushing down the pan you have a blockage somewhere

if not near your pan you have a main problem could be loads in your soil stack and thats a messy job

sometimes plunging it will work not all times though dont ram the mop head down too hard some have broken the toilet pan before now

that takes some explaining to do

Reading the above, it might be best if you change your bowel habits. Just a summary and suggestion. Do you do big sinkers?

First thing I'd look at is the outside drainage system. If that's clear,

Try hot water and washing up liquid down the toilet...sounds stupid but 9 times out of 10 it works.

If it's a build up of soluble matter, us a sulphuric acid based cleaner like one shot...

Hope this helps

Just get one next time you're in a decent sized supermarket or somewhere like wilko. It doesn't need to be a big one, smaller ones work too! It simply needs to be big enough to seal over the drain at the bottom of the pan.

Oh, but a longer handle is good...
