This might seem alarming but we appear to be using 1 whole roll of ( the one that puppies love) toilet roll Per Day! How can this be?
Although I have noticed that instead of 240 sheets per roll there are now only 200, but that is 100 sheets each!
Maybe the sheets are smaller?
I can’t understand how or why, I will investigate further, maybe DH is using it for other purposes?
If so it will have to stop him, this stuff isn’t cheap!
Sorry about the excessive quantity of exclamation marks.
Maybe I should get out more......

An American lady in the next cubicle to me in a public loo had complete hysterics about the Izal - "You wipe yourself with THIS!? I must take some home to show my friends."

Yes, I remember that shortage Jalima about 1972 wasn’t it?
There was a sugar shortage round about then as well.

I was very lucky at that time, as I had an itinerant job and bought up whatever was on offer in the various supermarkets I came across.
Prior to the shortages, toilet paper and sugar were favourites to be on offer. smile

There was a lentil shortage around then too, causing much consternation among Scottish housewives.

A funny story about bums....
A few years ago I use to put wet wipes next to the loo. Well one night they must have got mixed up with the toilet wipes. It kept the family going for ages joking about my mishap.
