the door, it's like someone is going round lighting candles one at a

Do you suppose that joint went out and bought Top Dollar CFLs, or the
very cheapest -- like their toilet paper? :-)

Well, I have to say that I had no complaint with their toilet paper. They
actually use Quilted Northern, which is what I buy myself, when I stay in
a
private place in Florida. Not being a native American, I have no idea
whether this is considered to be a laughable 'cheapo' brand over there,
but
it seems to compare pretty reasonably with the brand that I usually buy
here, which is *not* a cheap and cheerful one.

At least pre-moistened toilet paper never caught on over here.
I see ASDA is now selling "recycled toilet tissue"
