Can someone on here explain why folk are hoarding loo roll?
Wine, I can understand. At a stretch, pasta. But loo roll??
I'm currently hoarding Ned. A great Kiwi SV.
I am old enough to remember Izal toilet paper. It looked like tracing paper.
When we ran out, we used bits of newspaper.
I've tried using my ipad, (on which my newspaper sits), but it's not the same.

Our Ned stocks are sufficient for now!
As to paper, The Jersey Evening Post is both soft and relatively absorbent, and little significant material of value will be lost in the process.‘
Do you recall Bronco ... “Tearing along the dotted line”.
