I can't wander down the loo roll aisle in Tesco without buying the 3 free extra offer making up 12 rolls.

The Civil service had a campaign sometime in the 1970s to replace Bronco with soft bog roll, citing incidents of the hard stuff cutting botties.

If I am going to push the boat out for household articles then it goes on decent Malt Whisky.
