A young boy’s parents got more than they bargained for during a recent trip to B&Q when their son decided to poop in one of the display toilets.
Caroline Akhtar and her partner Azzy visited the DIY store in Glastonbury on Saturday, 11 June, and they took their kids along for the ride – Jacob, four, Frankie, three and Eliza, one.
But they soon lived to regret this decision when Jacob went to check out one of the display loos while their backs were turned.

By the time they realised he was doing a ‘very big poo’ it was too late, with pictures showing poor old Azzy having to fish out his son’s *ahem* deposit.
And all they wanted was a new washing line.
Caroline shared hilarious photos of the mishap on Facebook, writing: "Can’t quite believe what’s happened. J has taken a very big poo in one of the B&Q display toilets.

"Only went in for a washing line, turned around and J is sat on one of the toilets. Ran to say get off but it was very much too late.
"I left to get wet wipes and came back to him still sat on there because he ‘needed to finish’ and hubby didn’t know what else to do.
"The young shop assistant couldn’t stop laughing but also completely ignored the situation, don’t blame the lad."

Speaking to NTK, the mum added that they were initially ‘mortified’, but their shock soon turned to laughter when they could see the hilarity of what had happened.
"I quickly paced back to the car park to get wet wipes and nappy bags and couldn’t stop laughing then,” she said.
"He was still on the toilet so I proceeded to help wipe his bum still and explain about the toilets in shops are not actual toilets.
"He said his sister, Frankie, said he could use it. Eliza was oblivious to it all and happy just playing on the toilets."

It’s no surprise Caroline’s Facebook post has since gone viral, with dozens of people commenting on the amusing predicament.
"This is legendary," wrote one, while another said, "OMG, what a story this will make for when he’s older.”
A third quipped: "Well at least he's potty trained.”

Others said they could imagine their own kids doing the same thing, and there was even one person who experienced a similar situation while working in a shop.
They wrote: "We had that happen in Travis Perkins once, then the young lady wiped her bum with her teddy bear.”
Kids, eh?
