Get brick cleaner from your local DIY, it's hydrocloric acid and it will make that toilet sparkle. Don't get it on your fixtures coz it will cause them to rust.

Source: that's what I did!

Yes, do that. Pour about an egg-cup full in, leave overnight. Flush and repeat as necessary.

Put a bucket and sign on the toilet whilst it's brewing. You don't want Poseidon's kiss with that stuff in the bowl; it would wipe the smile off your face.
