When I was a lot younger we read the local newspaper then tore it into squares

which later used as toilet paper. Must of had printers ink all over our cheeks. :-S

I'd be happier if the damn things were not an inch narrower than our toilet roll holders.

You'd think that for something that is used, and presumably exported, all over the World there would be an international standard.

If the toilet rolls get any narrower they'll end up as paper ribbons !!

It's probably not too long - one doesn't want to be caught short.
It shouldn't be too expensive, either - a penny or two :-D :-D

I wondered if it was for people who get paid to wipe their own bum.

How long do you need to train for that profession?

I'm sorry, I had to 'google' Professional toilet paper, to see how they justify their claims - here are the results:

"Lotus Tork Professional Toilet Rolls comes in a range from Mini Jumbo, Jumbo Toilet Roll ".

Is that for elephants?
------------------
"Enigma professional toilet rolls are ideal for use in washroom environments where a conventional toilet roll is required."

So, what is an 'unconventional' toilet roll? :-S
-----------------------
"Sirius Professional are a PURE tissue 320 SHEET PREMIUM TOILET ROLLS are made from virgin pulp"

Do they really pulp virgins? :-0 :-0 :-0 :-0
--------------------
"The Tork Lotus Professional Toilet Rolls and Paper Products range is perfect for businesses who are dedicated to providing quality supplies to their customers."

Anyone who doesn't use it is decidedly unprofessional, then! :-D :-D
-----------------------
The best one is Kimberley-Clarke, who also provide:

"Kimberley-Clarke Professional Toilet Paper Hostesses!"

- Visions of a woman in classic 1950's clothes stood by the toilet handing out toilet paper to a bloke in a bowler - but, of course, being a 'Professional Hostess', she has the necessary qualifications! :-S :-S :-S

I am just looking on the Bookers site to price up the village lunch and one of the new products they have is professional toilet rolls.

Are there ways of making a living I never thought possible?
