After The Drain Saga....

....I'd like to ask you an intimate question.

How many bits of toilet paper do you use (on average) per "activity"? I probably use far too much...

Here it is, carlton asked the question two years ago - here's the snags answer :-) http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Body-and-Soul/Question1008391.html

Yuck! Reading through this thread has just made me think back to the horrible smell of Izal toilet paper (literally paper!) we had in our outside loo, as children in the 50s. It was so hard we had to screw it up in our hands first, to crinkle it up to make it more absorbent, the smell of the disinfectant on the paper made our hands smell for hours afterwards even after washing them with carbolic soap! Ugh, what memories!

Between myself and Mr Cuppa we go through a 9 pack most weeks.

But my lovely late step Dad used to say you only needed 3 pieces......an upper, a downer and a polisher. hahaha. Had many a laugh about that one.

Many moons ago I worked as a carer I would shop for one particular couple on market day. Oranges used to be wrapped in a tissue paper and my people would undo the wrapper and fold it neatly to place in the outside lavvy.

Having read only one page of answers this definitely TMI...

I use about 3X 24 inch lengths (about five perforated squares) per wipe on average. Depending on how sloppy the excretion is, sometimes two or so is enough sometimes four or five if it was a particularly gluey túrd.
