All this Talk about TOILET PAPER

A little old lady goes into the store to do some shopping. She is
bewildered over the large selection of toilet paper.
"Pardon me, sir," she says to the store manager, "but can you explain the
differences in all these toilet papers?"
"Well," he replies pointing out one brand, "this is as soft as a
baby'skiss.
It's£3.00 per roll." He grabs another and says, "This is nice and soft,
strong but gentle, and it's £2.00 a roll." Pointing to the bottom shelf he
tells her, "We call that our No Name brand, and it's 20p per roll."
"Give me the No Name," she says.
She comes back about a week later, seeks out the manager and says, "Hey!
I've got a name for your No Name toilet paper. I call it John Wayne."
"Why?" he asks.
"Because it's rough, tough and it don't take cr#*p off anybody!"

As a matter of interest....
Not long ago where you lived help determine the material of choice. Mussel shells were very popular in coastal regions prior to toilet paper's popularity (approx. 1900). "TEARS TO MY EYES"If you were lucky enough to be raised on the Hawaiian islands, you may have used good old coconut shells. OUCH :..  If you were born into royalty, like Louis XIV, you would have used wool or lace for added comfort.

I`m glad I`m not an Eskimo!! They have snow or moss! Blimey.

That could deffinately give you a nose bleed!!!

Interesting Kes..
If you were born into royalty, like Louis XIV, you would have used wool or lace for added comfort.

I suppose that's why everybody dreaded getting a knitted jumpers or box of hankies for Xmas??

Nice one Eggy!

When I visited Russia as a student in the 70s, I went into a public loo in Moscow. You had to go down the stairs and not only did the cubicles have no doors, but you had to use torn up pieces of Pravda as loo paper......

[Lindypops]

Omg. Was the print indelible?

[Sandy x]

I'm not an acrobat Lindypops and there were certainly no mirrors!

[Lindypops]

Lol, the mind boggles though, doesn`t it? I don`t possess a mirror, they scare me!

We seemed to get through rolls and rolls of it.... we only had about 4 days before we went home, we were sitting in the Malibu Bar listening to Ole Blue Eyes and Mike decided to go to the shop quick.  He came back with a huge bag of 12 loo rolls..  I was rolling (sorry about the pun) around laughing I couldnt believe he bought so many.  We didnt use them all I might add.
