Do you still use toilet paper?

Do you still use toilet paper? It seems to be a thing of the past here in Scotland Nobody hardly uses toilet paper any more It got very expensive and us poor Scots couldn't justify in our heads buying toilet paper at such a high cost and then using it once and flushing it down the toilet. So every where you go to use a public toilet it's a wash cloths and a juggy. The juggy has water in it One wets the.wash cloth in the juggy of water and wipes I think then that the wash cloth is rinsed out in the sink, and then placed beside the juggy which is rinsed out and refilled. Alternatively one can fill the.sink with water and wipe and wash whilst standing up Do you still use toilet paper?

We do still use toilet paper ….if I had to use a wash cloth that others had used, and a juggy, I would not go to those places.

We use toilet paper. If we need to use a public toilet, I always have moist wipes to use.

I´m a Toilet Paper user. I use it in the toilette, in my bedroom for my nose and when there aren´t visitors, as napkins in the dining room table.

If we have not got any toilet paper We use napkins we take from McDonalds I do not advise that anyone ever uses McDonalds napkin as toilet paper, unless they use two doubled up.

Yes People share the wash cloth Raquel. As long as it is rinsed out after one person uses it the health department have told us it's fine We will get to net zero in Scotland by hook or by crook

@Ineeddentures The septic tank guy said they clog up the pipes whether you have septic or city. They don't disintegrate the way they're supposed to.
