Guest Had Enough Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 malc d - 2014-10-22 2:46 PM Robinhood - 2014-10-22 11:25 AM Why Christmas should lead to an increase in toilet roll demand was not explained. I once heard that the sale of toilet rolls increases significantly in winter because a lot of people use them as tissues for their streaming noses. ;-) We use them as Christmas decorations and stream the tissue from wall to wall. It's even better if you can get a few rolls that are nicely tinted. A few lengths draped over the Christmas tree looks nice as well. Much more tasteful than those awful streamer type of decorations and glittery balls that the chavs use. And of course if you take them down carefully the paper can then be used for its intended purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayjsj Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 clifford60 - 2014-10-22 2:17 PM Hi again, As far as Izal is concerned, have you thought of finding a srap piece of wood? Wow, 2 threads on Toilet paper, you can tell we are getting into the winter, no trips away and the mrs watching 'Strictly or another bloody Cooking program' long live the Forum ! Izal germicide was like a fine grade of sandpaper, but it was a step up from bits of newspaper on a bit of string. (but not such an interesting read).

JohnP Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 At a timber yard in Norwich I used to visit there was a communal toilet with three rolls of paper Labelled Ladies which held Andrews, gents which held Izal and one labelled for hard cases which held a roll of sandpaper.

Geeco Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Thanks for the encouragement & kind words.CVP = caravan park, my mate born & raised in Bradford taught me that. He arrived as a 10pound Pom back some 40 years ago. His kit is a Range Rover Disco pulling a large off road caravan made by a local manuf called Jaco. The fun he has had with his kit went a long way to helping me make the decision to get involved. I am now "champing at the bit" to get into it as the MH has been on order since March. Long story but the importer stuffed up the order & had to wait for the next Aussie production run this month. Interestingly caravans are more popular that MH here with MH only 10% of RV market. looking forward to contributing from time to time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pampam Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Eyup we never used toilet paper in the van , i much prefer baby wipes (keep your bits lovely and clean and fresh) and had a small pedal bin in shower room with liner which got emptied every couple of days along with other rubbish : if its good enough for a baby its good enough pour moi : hate those dusty paper bogrolls ! Lol pp:) and before you ask they work out at just under a penny each : loads better when you empty your waste without paper clarting everything up : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Den Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Yes, it's better than using your fingers, which tends to happen with the MH paper. We now do what the continentals do. Put the used paper in a dogy bag. Chemicals in the loo will deal with the rest easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
