Don't ask.
It was a 'normal' week as well.
I should go out more; that way I can use other people's loo paper!
In my defence, I drink a lot of fluid....tea and water.... so the need to go is ever present.
Mine's the other one.... you know ....
I'd have to supply pegs for their noses.

I believe it's the good-old EU who have put paid to that with their limited-flush rules.
I know that I almost invariably have to flush twice, so how that's saving water I don't know!

So my grandson tells me!
You can have a whole toilet roll,minus 3 sheets,unless it's number 2, then it goes up to six,how many sheets on a toilet roll?
You will be surprised at the end of the toilet roll!.

Newspaper doesn't dissolve, and it would cause blockages, especially when it gets entangled with wet wipes, cotton wool, sanitary products and nappy liners and then gets solidified by fat.
All things that should never go down the drains.
Try putting some loo paper into a basin and see how easily it dissolves, then do the same with a tissue....it takes a lot longer. Then try a piece of kitchen paper.....longer again.
Then put some newspaper into water. You'll be there forever.
Now who would want that lot down their pipes to turn into papier-mâché?
We really do need to be more respectful of our sewerage system
