    Not really a con is it?

    Manufacturing costs go up. You have 2 choices, reduce the size of the product or raise the price.

    Pretty basic stuff.

    Andrex is rubbish. Try Regina 3 ply toilet rolls instead £1.89 for 6 from Family Bargains.

    I prefer to use a sponge which I wash after use. I have a special selection of guest sponges for visitors to use.

    Park in an ANPR Ltd car park for too long or not in a marked bay, ignore the PCN and collect the subsequent paperwork and debt collector letters. Bingo! No-cost loo paper. :D

    Many moons ago, I fancied this bloke, and, after weeks of flirting in the pub, I went back to his place (yes, I'm a trollop)

    Now it wasn't quite newspaper on a string, it was kitchen roll beside the toilet, better that nowt I s'pose, but it put me right off him (when I remembered the next morning, obv!)
