Found this in the u bend of kitchen sink whilst retrieving a screw from a cafetiere which had fallen down the plughole.I think it's made from copper or brass and weighs about 13 g.There's no thread on it and the raised metal dot doesn't move. It may have been there a while.Puzzled.
Thanks.

Drain snake stuck in the u bend
So my toilet got blocked and none of the usual methods were working. I had a drain snake lying around in a kitchen drawer so thought I'd give it a go. I didn't bother to check online how to use it etc (obviously 🙄) I just shoved it down the u bend and wiggled it about a bit and all the Rubbish...
