As my wife found out when she joined me for a trip, long ago!
You got clean though!
Sorry Ted but I find that completely funny.Over the top and down the front of the roll - anything else is far to common doncha know?

Re: Toilet paper: the over versus under debate
I have always had the roll oriented so that the loose end hangs down to the front. Closer to hand and easier to reach, you see.Unfortunately, for some reason, Marge hangs it up the other way around and I'm obliged to turn in the correct way around!
