I use Angel soft...and it's white. I don't think I've ever seen any other color besides light blue?!? Is there red, green, orange, yellow and purple? lol ;-)

No disasters yet, ewww YUCK!


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

ive never heard of angel soft at all.sounds nice and heavenly.ive seen blue,green yellow,pink and white.bewrae the really cheap stuff.ive heard some horror stories involving young kids and walls.yukk


myLot reputation of 93/100. BittyBiddy (1085)  6 years ago

There's orange too. I think orange toilet paper is disgusting. So is pink. Actually so is green. And I hate that creamy cheapo toilet paper that looks like it's got bits of chipboard in it.


myLot reputation of 93/100. BittyBiddy (1085)  6 years ago

I can't believe I'm ranting about toilet paper now. I have an assignment to do and I'm on myLot talking about loo roll. :/


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

we use that cheapo stuff to which you refer.thats why i mentioned fingers going through it.imagine grown adults going on about bog roll.have i lowered the tone that much,hahaha


myLot reputation of 93/100. BittyBiddy (1085)  6 years ago

Oh jimbo, are you sure it's the same stuff? The squares in it are really small and they really look like a really light form of papier mache or something. I must remember to bring my own toilet paper if I ever visit your house. LOL!


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

you can just use the evening express like everyone else,


myLot reputation of 93/100. BittyBiddy (1085)  6 years ago

Thanks! I think I'll have a bit of the Scotsman instead.


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

what about the daily record.


myLot reputation of 93/100. BittyBiddy (1085)  6 years ago

No, there's nothing like a good bit of Scotsman.


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

yes,i quite enjoy a bit of a good scotsman to,hahaha

I think I always buy white toilet paper. I tend to stay away from toilet paper that has dye in it. It just seems to me that white toilet paper is more safe to use. I haven't seen many brands of colored toilet paper out there around here lately.


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

andrex do various colours but i always ask myself why they just dont make it dark brown or something.cut out the middle man.you know what i mean.well,i do,i think.

4. myLot reputation of 83/100. irisheyes (3349)   6 years ago

I use buy white Scott tissue. It's less expensive than the other less well known brands because it lasts longer - more little sheets on the roll, very soft & never a disaster.....I never heard of the brands on here. I thought it was a UK thing but when I checked a responder's profile they were American...Is Scott tissue regional to Pennsylvania???


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

id heard of scotties tissues,like the kleenex ones.america is all different.in some parts of scotland,we still use newspaper.mind you,we also wrap fish and chips in it to.you get printers ink on your bottom.hahaha

5. myLot reputation of 99/100. wolfie34 (14489)   6 years ago

I don't know why but I always insist of buying white toilet rolls, we've had pink and yellow before but it doesn't go with the colour scheme of the bathroom! Yes, I think we all have a few er accidents with the fingers. I would love a bidet, when I'm rich and famous I am going to buy myself a bidet. As for the brand, well I always opt for the cheapest and the BOGOF's but I refuse to buy recycled, just puts me off for some reason ;0)


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

ive often wondered if recycled meant that it had been used on someone elses bum before.we do buy tescos own value brand,40p for 4 rolls and im sure its been recycled.maybe you and i have wiped with the same paper.isnt that a thought to make you just want to gag.


myLot reputation of 92/100. mamashane (541)  6 years ago

Wolfie, what's a bidet? Being from the good ol' USA, I've never heard this word before. Jimbo...how do you think they find the paper to be recycled? Do they have people digging out the sewers to collect t.p. to be recycled? Now that's disgusting! Just some of the wonderful things being done to save our planet!


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

mamashane,put the word bidet into google and see what you come up with.as for recycled paper,who knows where it comes from.i dont believe you dont know what a bidet is.you do dont you.


myLot reputation of 92/100. mamashane (541)  6 years ago

I have no clue what a bidet is but I'm going to look it up on google right now.


myLot reputation of 92/100. mamashane (541)  6 years ago

From Wikipedia....a bidet is a low-mounted plumbing fixture or type of sink inteded for washing the external genitalia and the anus. No Jimbo, I have never heard of this before although I have to say it seems interesting. There was a photo on Wikipedia that also helped very much. Maybe I can get John to install one in my bathroom, he's quite the plumber!


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

we dont have one either,i think wolfie must be really posh.my mum has one in her house and she is posh,i sh1t in by mistake the first time i used her bathroom.what a mess and im not talking fingers and paper.


myLot reputation of 92/100. mamashane (541)  6 years ago

How could you mistake it for a toilet when there's no toilet seat on it? Or is there? Then I could see how you could make that mistake.


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

quite often,toilets dont have seats on them,usually cos theyve been stolen.easy mistake to make.


myLot reputation of 99/100. wolfie34 (14489)  6 years ago

i couldnt believe mamashane didnt know what a bidet was.why does this browser keep underlining my typing.am i that bad.no probs with the best response,you initiated some fun.thats usually what i judge on when its such a serious topic.

I "AIM" to please (pun naturally intended)


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

of course,im often quite wide of the mark,hahaha


myLot reputation of 92/100. gifana (2229)  6 years ago

An American tourist in Paris went into the bathroom and saw a bidet and asked the French maid if the bidet was used to wash babies in....to which the maid replied....non, non, madame, it's to wash babies out.....hehehe


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

another gem from portugal.you should tell mamashane that one.


myLot reputation of 92/100. gifana (2229)  6 years ago

If she checks back she will see it.


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

she will im sure,and if she doesnt,i will tell her when i nexyt skype with her.

Its got to be white for me as well.

Andrex and nouvelle are the two brands i like to stick to.

Thats the brands which i like to stick to not anything else... no dont go there!


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

you is very rich methinks,andrex and nouvelle,cost an arm and a leg they do.well i have a new brand and its called the aberdeen evening express.multi purpose,lets you know about the local W.R.I and then wipes bum.its ace.i swear that when weve gone to bed,ive read the sports results on wifeofjimbos bum


myLot reputation of 92/100. ukchriss (1700)  6 years ago

Oh no not rich...

7. myLot reputation of 93/100. BittyBiddy (1085)   6 years ago

I usually buy the Kitten Soft toilet roll in white. Kitten Soft is Irish so that's why I buy it. There's also plenty on the roll, and the white colour goes with everything. We've three bathrooms so it doesn't matter which bathroom the toilet roll goes into, it will still match everything.


Kitten Soft

myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

kitten soft,oh my god,ive got to ask,does it make you purr?keeping the money in eire is good though.we buy scottish goods when we can afford them.i thought most of these things all had about the same amount on the roll.3 bathrooms,wow,you have more bathrooms than we have rooms,not quite but you get my drift.white bog roll rules.it goes with anything.


myLot reputation of 93/100. BittyBiddy (1085)  6 years ago

New houses here have two or three bathrooms as standard. I suppose you wouldn't really call them bathrooms. We have a bathroom, an en-suite with a shower, and then a downstairs wc. The en-suite and the wc are just about big enough to swing a Kitten soft toilet roll.


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

i suppose that new houses here have a lot of bogs to.our house is old and therefore only has one,and i think it was added afterwards


myLot reputation of 92/100. gifana (2229)  6 years ago

Jimbo....might not make her purr but I bet it keeps her puthy clean.


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

puthy.i will have to remember that.ive tried to add the word that starts with a p and ends like fussy before,but never managed.

I always buy scott 1000 sheet white toilet paper. it lasts longer because it has 1000 sheets on the roll.


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

1000 sheets on the roll,thats massive.the stuff we get only has 200 or 240.wow.dont think ive ever seen one that big.


myLot reputation of 99/100. sandie61 (1272)  6 years ago

yep, it has 1000 sheets. its good. you don`t have to change the roll as often:)


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

4 times less often than we do.i still am trying to imagine what size it is.


myLot reputation of 99/100. sandie61 (1272)  6 years ago

this is scotts 1000 sheet roll. lol



myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

never seen it here,thats for sure.maybe we dont shite as much,who knows.i mean,these things must have usage researched dont they?


myLot reputation of 99/100. sandie61 (1272)  6 years ago

hahahaha! your comment was so funny. you are a very funny person. thanks for making me laugh and have a great day.

Interesting topic!I buy white and it's the brand called Angel Soft.Some people are allergic to the colored toilet paper so I just stick with white.
Stephanie


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

im gonna display a fair amount of ignorance here,but why are people allergic to coloured toilet paper?what happens if you go to someones house and they have a colour toilet roll other than white.angel soft does seem quite common,though not in the uk.ive never heard of this allergy thing and i wonder how it manifests itself.does your bottom,not yours personally,come out in itchy blotches or something.you,ve got me thinking now.


myLot reputation of 92/100. mamashane (541)  6 years ago

Some people are allergic to the dyes in the colored paper. That would be horrible wouldn't it? You go to someone elses house, you must use the potty and the only thing you have to wipe with is going to make you break out in a rash! If it were me, I think I would keep a roll of my own stashed in my purse!


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

you must have a big purse.


myLot reputation of 92/100. mamashane (541)  6 years ago

It's enormous.


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

does it hold one or two things then?


myLot reputation of 92/100. mamashane (541)  6 years ago

What do you mean "one or two things"? It holds many things.


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

the clue was most definetly in the question,think about it.

I buy nothing but Angel Soft. No fingers going through my paper. I learned that most of the paper the your fingers tear is because its ruff paper. Angel Soft all the way. my boyfriend dont like ruff t. paper either. And as for the color most women have trouble with the dye in the t.paper


myLot reputation of 83/100. jimbo45 (9380)  6 years ago

another vote for angel soft.no finger penetration at all.i may have to consider a better brand.i have noticed that the stuff we use is rough compared to what my dad uses.wots this about women having trouble with the dye on the coloured stuff,i think that needs an explanation.
