Toilet Paper

[Gingerbaker]

Why was toilet paper panic bought in the early days of Covid?

[douglas9401]

"...they cost more than loo rolls and are extremely painful."

Only if it's hard news though.

[Patsy33]

All I know, the prices have shot sky high!
A word of warning, don't put kitchen towel paper down the loo, unless you want a blocked toilet.

//Why do people put the roll on the holder to dispense under rather than over ?//

If you pull from under it lifts the roll away from the wall so it runs easily - if you pull from over it presses into the wall & locks up, tearing off before you have the required number of sheets (simples).

[Atheist]

Wise words, Patsy. And don't pour fat or grease down the plughole.

[Atheist]

Davebro; you've got the wrong sort of dispenser.

[Atheist]

Anyway, Davebro. how many sheets do you need?

//Anyway, Davebro. how many sheets do you need?//

You wouldn't believe me if I told you - bog roll would be the last of my economies.

[Atheist]

Davebro; I wondered how many sheets per sheet!

[ferlew]

OVER.
If the holder is on a tiled wall, and there is a little condensation on the tiles......(as in after a shower or bath)....then the paper would get wet by touching the tiles.

[davebro]

a) I don't have tiles on that wall.
b) I sheet *before* having a bath or shower.

// I'm not surprised you have, Zebu. //

Don't knock it gness. Each sheet is medicated!

[gness]

Oh well that's all right then, Zebu. For fun can you let us know when you have used it all please?

[davebro]

could be a while - he's got piles!

[pastafreak]

I understood that atheist...I mean now. I'd probably have reservations about using newspapers from a chip shop...who's been handling it etc etc etc. ;) ;)

[Atheist]

Pasta; I suspect that their hands would be cleaner than your bum!

[davebro]

Being pedantic (what me!) chip shops aren't allowed to use newspaper for wrapping for years now. Elf & safety y'know.

[andres]

Just be thankful we are not still using -----sticks, stones, moss, twigs, pebbles, rags .

[youngmafbog]

Dont know, just use the Guardian, its free in a lot of places too.

Works just fine as I know from personal experience.

HaHa... IZAL toilet rolls are like candles. There use is confined to emergencies only. They're currently stored in a dry secure place hoping never to be used again!
