TorontoTim Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 How much toilet paper do people actually get through in 2 or 3 weeks of self-isolation?? It's Corona virus, not dysentery... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobH Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 (edited) Logic doesn't come into it Tim, unfortunately.  When the TV is shouting about shortages of something, people panic and rush out to buy.  Give it a week or two and the shops will be overflowing with the stuff.  In a year's time people will be throwing away a lot of the food they've stockpiled, because it will be beyond the use-by date.  Edited March 8, 2020 by RobH Quote Link to post Share on other sites
foster461 Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 I can understand buying a couple of weeks of food/wine just in case we need to self isolate for a couple of weeks and we have already made sure we and the cats could do that if we had to but I cannot understand the need for people to buy a years supply of TP. I must be missing something. Â Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Crawfie Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 (edited) I've already had the informative lecture from my in-laws about using newspaper during the war.  I informed them that at least this time they wouldn't end up with printers ink all over their............  Edited March 8, 2020 by Crawfie Words added Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobH Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 If people do resort to that I hope they remember that newspaper doesn't break down when wet in the same way that the proper stuff does. Dyno-rod will make a fortune. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Smith Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 Maybe the Supermarkets should sell British Army 24hr Ration Packs (rat packs), dozens of menus available to suit all dietary requirements, cultures and religions -  after several days living on those you'd be bound up for weeks, so no need for loo rolls.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites

little jim Posted March 9, 2020 Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 same thing is happening here. One bod is being taken to court after beating someone up in the supermarket over the last rolls. What do you do with so much of it? Does anyone have any good recipes?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Waldi Posted March 13, 2020 Report Share Posted March 13, 2020 I can recommend the 3P diet: Pancakes, Pizza and Pig-schnitzel. I’m not sure if it helps against Corona, but it fits below the door. On a serious note: there is a lot of fake news about preventive measures, here is one: drinking warm water and eating garlic are just a couple that are mentioned in the more mature /reliable channels here.

TorontoTim Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 Wouldn't "pig-schnitzel" really only be pork schnitzel? Sounds yummy to me...! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
