I just looked at Mrs Hinch's toilet roll stamp

What a load of fucking shit.

I'd seen it mentioned on here a couple of times and so I just googled it. Why the fuck would anyone want a drip stain on their toilet roll. As if someone thinks "Oh this is a new roll, great". It's just fucking toilet roll!

I remember an Alan Bennett story where he talked about staying in hotels and how they fold the end of their loo roll into a point. He said if he’d ever stayed in a hotel as a child and seen that he would have assumed the loo roll point was the proper way to do things, and would have consequently been embarrassed about his non folded loo roll at home. The joke being of course no one would do that at home, but now apparently they do!

No way! What in God's name is going on?!

That is possibly the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever seen. I thought you meant a stamp like with a pad of ink to put her name or logo on them ... which would at least make some sense

Its bog roll crafting celebelly Grin

There's so much I still have to learn about being an adult

Whisky2014 · 12/01/2019 22:59

I dont get why hotels do it actually. I mean, we all know if a loo roll has been taken from. Why disguise it?!

But youd have to keep popping to the loo every time someone goes or it wont be 'nice' for the next person

Honestly...its not safe to go into the toilet after some of my family members!!

Celebelly · 12/01/2019 23:01

Is it just for new rolls or every time? I'm 36 weeks pregnant – I can't be stamping loo rolls every time I go for a piss. I'd never leave the bathroom.

I'm going to try this and report back with a picture.

Whisky2014 · 12/01/2019 23:03

I'm not sure if it's for every time but I don't see why it wouldn't be?! I mean, I don't understand it at all and don't get why youd do it even a first time!

Any luck?

It's a shame if you can't see it. It looks really good.

But there must be a point

I'm just Hmm. I mean why? What purpose my phone tried to correct that to porpoise does it serve? The world's gone mad.

ILoveMaxiBondi · 12/01/2019 23:16

I can only imagine the point is for cleaning under your nails when your finger pokes through Wink bit more of an insight into Mrs Hinchs bathroom struggles than i needed but it passes a Saturday evening Grin

ILoveMaxiBondi · 12/01/2019 23:17

Perfect celebelly! Grin

Dermymc · 12/01/2019 23:18

I don't understand it. What is the point? Looks like soggy loo roll.
