I was a seventies kid and occasionally I had to run to a public toilet.
They had IZAL toilet paper (not sure , but they may still be making this stuff).
it was tracing paper cut into squares. There was no way of using this stuff to wipe it -
it just displaced the @@@@ not absorb it.
SO what mad man thought it was a good idea? It cut into you... WTF.
Today i use the skins of dead mink to wipe it.

Very popular in Venezuela at the moment, and some are predicting a packet of Izal will become a unit of currency.

Horrid stuff San Izal, school issue in the 60's. Start wiping your arse and finish somewhere between your shoulder blades.
However,it was better than the cut up News of the World I used to get at my aunties house. |

Cut up Tit-bits magazine at my gran's outdoor loo was best as you got a good read first.

I'd prefer the newspaper than that horrid stuff ! Always remember they had it in school and are Mum use to give me and my brother normal toilet paper to take if we needed to go at school.  And our Auntie Nance always had squares of newspaper cut up and hanging on a butchers hook in the outside toilet !I think I have such bad memories with all that 'toilet paper' today I insist my wife only buys quilted toilet rolls ! |

Zorro, if you make the step up to live mink, you'll find that if you hold 'em by the ears, the natural wriggling will create enough friction to save you the task of moving your hand back and forth.
I think IZAL was a popular brand back in the day because it could be used more than once and was therefore very economical. |
