one roll in each

That would be ridiculous. How would I wipe my bum? :confused:

Re: toilet rolls
 

There is a right & wrong way to fill the toilet roll holders & the right way is away from the wall.

When someone puts it in so that the paper is closest to the wall several things can go wrong:
1) The wall gets grabbed & wallpaper gets fingernail indents.
2) The paper does not rip off from the holder properly, esp if it has a serated edge closest to the user.
3) Not having full control of the removal procedure, 2 ply+ often gets easily seperated
4) I get irritated.

When its in a holder that uses the serated edge, they are designed to have the roll end closest to that edge so that it creates a sharp angle & hence seperates the sheets when it is pulled off.

Not having it so is especially annoying when the roll is the large commercial ones that most public/factories etc use as the roll end then dissapears somewhere into the holder & because an idiot fitted it to the wall at the same height as a normal holder, you have to stoop very low in order to get your hand up there & retrieve it, thus giving you a bad back.

As you can see, this subject has been discussed with some people before...lol :D :D :D

Re: toilet rolls
 

Facing away, definitely. It's one of little things I'm a bit obsessed about. Even in someone elses house, if it's facing toward the wall I have to change it. It's almost as annoying for me as the last person using the loo to leave an empty loo roll on the dispenser... :mad: :mad: :mad:

Re: toilet rolls
 

or, indeed, when they leave a 1 ply sheet as a sort of token
offering to prove they did not use the last sheet
or, god fobid, start dismantling the
cardboard roll itself for use thereof

Re: toilet rolls
 

Hmm, does this prompt a "what ply rolls do you use" thread?

Re: toilet rolls
 

could do

anyone remember that 'izal' stuff you used to see around

Re: toilet rolls
 

Yep, that pi$$es me off even more....

:sick: doesn't even bear thinking about.....

Re: toilet rolls
 

LOL - What a brill thread :D

I remember being forced to go on a heatlh and safety course after I left school. On the first day they started talking about personal hygiene and then actualy handed out diagrams details the correct procedure for wiping your ass...... I nearly wet myself laughing and walked out allong with half of the group :rofl:

Re: toilet rolls
 

whatever that is it can't be as bad as "badgers ar$e"

(apologies for the mild swearwords in this attachment . i would have edited it but was struck down by a sudden bout of laziness)

Re: toilet rolls
 

is that an actual product - or a windup thing - surely?

Re: toilet rolls
 

Nothing was worse than the loo paper at school - it was more like tracing paper, or possibly greaseproof..... :disturbd:

Re: toilet rolls
 

a windup ;).. i only need the tiniest excuse to delve into my repository of humourous pictures.. sad but true

Re: toilet rolls
 

Some friends of mine actually did use it as tracing paper...

Mind you, it had other uses as well. Torn up, and soaked, it stuck to any available walls or ceilings quite nicely..

Re: toilet rolls
 

yeah

that's the same stuff I was on about
