Andrex Shea Butter Toilet Rolls

[hellywelly4]

I recently bought some of these as they were on special offer. I'm pretty sure the cardboard roll inside has been made larger, so that there is less toilet roll, and the consistency of the paper is not very nice. Anyone else agree?

Some years ago whilst in hospital I sent an SOS home for soft loo roll after getting a splinter in my nates from the NHS one at the time.

Not from sliding down the bannisters then, Mamya ;-)

[Jackdaw33]

Got it in one, Hans. It should be the other way round.

Mamya, I'm impressed with your use of the word 'nates'.

Eddie, "What the **** is Shea Butter anyway" it is a delight full product, I use it to make my own beard balm, and skin care products for Carakeel. Its expensive but delightful.

Nurse, tweezers please !.

So is there any actual Shea Butter in bog roll?

[Jackdaw33]

Rather than Shea butter I would have thought it would be Loopack.

[Cloverjo]

I was just about to ask the same thing, Eddie. Is it mixed in with the fibres at some point?
I just buy the cheapest loo roll in the cash and carry. No point on spending more money than you have to on that.

[Jackdaw33]

Sometimes you need a little luxury, especially if you have had a vindaloo the night before.

[tonyav]

Apparently there is Shea butter in it.

I suppose it's a case of, "Love your bum!"

[-SharonA-]

I used to buy the quilted ones. They used to be nice and soft, but lately I am surprised I have got skin left on my bum. It is like using sandpaper!

[EDDIE51]

As someone who has lived in central Africa I can recommend corn cob husks for bum cleaning Bit difficult to flush though ! Great for removing 'Jog nuts'

[Jackdaw33]

I presume one eats the corn sooner rather than later.

[EDDIE51]

It's the bare husk/stalk after the corn has been eaten that they use !
Of course you eat the sweet corn and it emerges the other end anyway.

[EDDIE51]

^ When we were kids my brothers and I used to have' sweet corn races' you eat the corn and the first one to poo it out wins the race!
