Teenage red letter day!

Whatever you do bags, don't mention it!

????

Just got to train Toad now?

Love your responses, kitty, mini, & Lona

Did she put the roll on the holder the right way round?

It is good to know that all the training is paying off.

Ah, but did the empty cardboard bit reach the recycling bin ? Or was it on the edge of the basin

anno, yes!

nina, no! Cardboard cylinder left on the bathroom windowsill, but it's a start

This made me laugh out loud and I'm sure will strike a chord with many wives/parents.

The right way round doesn't matter, as long as they do it! My S (no DS, he's naffed me off today) has just walked out refusing to put rubbish out and put his own clothes on the line! Oh well, help and sympathy over, back to him being an asshole.

Bags Thanks for the chuckle.

Did she fold a pointy end on the first sheet to prove it's FRESH like they do on Four in a Bed?

merlot, [snort!]

Thatbags I cleared away three toilet roll insides from my bathroom the other day.
sluttty granny.

She has offered to drag bins up the hill too. If I bring them up after they've been emptied, I tow them behind the car! It's hard work. Mind you I'm sixty and slightly decrepit; she's fifteen. I was stronger then too. Good on ya, minibags!

NellieM I keep cardboard toilet roll inners to plant sweet pea seeds in, so I have a good excuse for stockpiling them.

(I bring home the big blue plastic mushroom boxes from the supermarket, stand the tubes upright in them and fill up the whole thing with compost. The sweet pea roots grow down separately and don't get tangled. You don't even need to take the tubes off for planting out, if you plant them deep enough to cover the cardboard)

Sounds as though your resident teenager is rejoining the human race.

This will give hope to so many people with teenage children - perhaps you should post this over on 'the other side' too

That pointy thing with the toilet paper, I do that. When I clean the bathrooms I replace the toilet roll and fold the end, guest bathroom only, DH knows to use that bathroom at his peril if I am expecting visitors. I do stop short of putting tape across the loo seat the way posh hotels do

She loves ya Bags. She wants to help her old mum.

Somebody keeps doing this at my house, too. Unfortunately the wrong way round. Sometimes they take off a half full roll then replace it the wrong way round. I am launching an investigation. Operation Illegal Overhang.

Can somebody tell me what is the right way round?

I like the loo paper to feed from behind the roll.....Is that wrong?

I like it to feed from the front - it's a habit I got into when our then bathroom had painted walls (tiles only round the bath) and dirty little fingers weren't always careful to avoid the wall when unrolling the loo paper

I like it that way merlot it tears better for me.
