Toilet roll ettiquette

[GB9]

Staying in a half decent, although slightly pretentious hotel this week. Nip into the ensuite for a tulip only to be confronted with 2 toilet rolls i.e. on roll holders, as opposed to having a spare lying around.

Is there any ettiquette as to which I use? (And yes, I am goddamn bored).

Furthest for your bum,
closest for your cum


or was it other way round

Eee I remember the days when contractors used to ask which porn channel to watch <sigh>

Assuming you are faced with two seperate holders then I think you should use the one nearest your preferred hand. Right handed - right. Left handed - left. Assuming two rolls on one of them Tower of Hanoi arrangements then you should know to use the top roll first. (then move it)
Under no circumstances use the Izal.

Thanks to the internet and one-a-day those days are over

Did it have the end folded into a point as well?



I would use whichever took your fancy - you're paying the bill. If you choose the wrong one though prepare for the footage to be laughed at by the hotel staff when they watch all the replays in the morning.

I think you're supposed to take one piece from each and layer them.

It's an EU regulation to cater for the ambidextrous. It's unfair to force them to wipe with just one hand. If you're not ambidextrous, just keep your prejudices to yourself.

EU landfill reduction regs. You don't tear anymore but roll the used paper onto the spare holder like the old style towel rollers. They then resell to Travelodge.

Ha ha. Cracking replies there.

Both were to my right and both had folded corners. I used the top one but maybe should have used the 'bottom'.

Yep, generally it's good to read the label for guidance.
