SILLY SATURDAY

Hello lovely Blippers, 

I was having a great sleep in the airing cupboard with my friends, on top of Mrs. HCB’s new fluffy PJs, it being the warmest place in the house, when the door opened and Mrs HCB was standing there with her camera in her hand!  What a rude awakening at 12.30 in the morning and how silly is that? 

I’ve heard it said that, because of this thing called Brexit that everyone seems to be arguing about but not doing much else, there may well be a shortage of toilet rolls. Well, I can tell you that there are 4 large packs of 16 rolls, making a total of 64, in Mr and Mrs HCB’s airing cupboard, plus several others dotted around so I think you will all agree with me that this is very silly or maybe Mrs. HCB knows something the rest of us don’t know!

However, these particular packs are not called “toilet rolls” because they are from one of the posh supermarkets!  On the pack, the description says “Ultra soft bathroom tissue - Pure White”, something else I think is silly - why not call it what it is? Apparently the packs are also available in Champagne and Blush, if you so desire!  It does say that the paper is produced in the UK from responsible sources - now that is good to see. 

For those of you who like statistics, it also says on this 16 roll pack of 2 ply tissue that there is an average of 240 sheets per roll, the sheet size is 124×104 mm and the total area is 49.52 m² - I wonder whose job it was to work that out? 

Anyway, Mrs HCB has fiddled and fartnarkled around and this is the result for her Silly Saturday Blip and you can even see her famous pink robe that hangs in the airing cupboard - what is she like? 

Love to you all - have a great weekend,

JH Ted xx 

I wonder how many can relate to this: 

“Everybody wants to change the world,
     but no-one wants to change the
          toilet roll when it runs out!”
