We have a blocked drain out the back. It's the one my washing machine runs into and the shower connected to the boys room. I suspect it's blocked with a combination of lint from the washer, mud and sludge from the boys playing at a place they like to call 'stingray island' which is really just a mudflat they go to in order to get filthy, and possibly tree roots in the rubble pit this particular drain runs into.

It there's no tree roots involved, hopefully it should be an easy fix, but if there's tree roots, we're going to have to redig the whole pit and start over, which means lifting up pavers and then repaving at the end.

Suckful!
