I think we all could have guessed who said it.

She is worrying, isn't she. If she likes poking about in poo so much I wish she'd come round here and take a turn with ds's nappies. They would keep her happy for weeks...

will this turn into a toilet paper quality thread?

She's rather disturbingly obsessed, isn't she ... who cares how many wipes it takes, as long as you get it clean ...

VVV - don't ask. And for heaven's sake don't google ...

It involves doing very weird things with poo.

So 15 wipes is not good then

oh, so none of you will have read and remembered great article in the Guardian so many years ago about the 8 (i think) textures of poo. Basically ranged from result of eating only lard (ouch!) to only veggies (no toilet paper needed whatsoever!). So much wish I had kept it. I may have been a german in another life though....

There must be something the matter with me because I actually went to search for the Guardian article about the 8 types of poo. I didn't find it, but I did find this which was quite apposite.

I stopped looking after that because I scared myself, frankly.
