Can anyone suggest a website that sells these disposable washcloths? I have found a few but they seem to be pre-moistened and I want dry cloths.
Thanks!

Bog paper should roll from above.
What really gets me is when some eejit has not noticed that the stuff is inside-out and the perforations in the two layers don't correspond.

Bog roll should come from behind, taking it over the top menas it doesn't look neat. Got to agree with the Evildoers who can't get the perforations right though

Do you not know the trick with thye perforations? It's something I learned on "How!" on Southern Television with Jack Hargraves and Fred Dinage.

All you do is take the top layer and roll it on its own one cricuit of the roll - and hey presto! the perforations line up.

Bunty James never had useful information like that.

The only people who care which way the toilet paper hangs are people with cats. They learn the first day to roll from behind.

My toilet has TWO push buttons in the center, for full and half flush. It was made in Australia of all places.

No, the water doesn't swirl down the other way around!

Yep - Caroma in Australia developed the 6/3 dual flush system. It is actually quite innovate technology as the whole toilet had to be re-engineered including the pan and the cistern. Now the average household in Australia uses 18 litres per day in toilet flushing compared to 55 litres in 1982. All great for the environment.

The funds management firm I used work for invested in Caroma and I had the honour of touring several sanitary ware factories. ;) Anything else you want to ask?

DH & I always disagree about TP positioning - I like it pulling from the back. He says the hotels do it over the top so they can put those pointed folds on the end. IMO it just doesn't feel right pulling it over the top.

OK, this post has shifted from one ridiculous topic to another, but while we're on the subject of TP, I am inconsistent with installation. I kind of prefer it hanging over the top, but the current roll is coming from underneath...

Also, one of the most disgusting things I've experienced in Europe is those strings that you pull to flush the toilet, or turn on the light. They are almost always really dirty, and I try to grab the top of the string, since I'm pretty tall. I figure I'll lessen my chance of contracting a disease if I grap the upper end!! Don't people ever change, or at least clean the strings/ropes? Really nasty...!!! b-(

Edit: change the word "grap" tp "grab" in previous post. Thank you. :)>-

Too much info but I use TP to touch the flushing handle or string. I see that lately in US washrooms they have a wastebasket by the door for those who use paper to touch the doorknobs. What a good idea.

We use infant washcloths. You can buy them by the pack at the Dollar store or W'mart. We just throw them in with the other hand washables and they dry overnight. Very cheap solution.


A friend was jealous of my "baby cloth" and tried to buy one in Florence. We looked all over town, but found none.

I used to believe that it should come from the bottom, which would make the end easier to find. But lately I have noticed that if the TP has a design (like hearts or flowers), these will be upside-down if you make the end come from the bottom or underneath the roll. And wouldn't this ruin an otherwise pleasant trip to the bathroom--to have to see that??

IKEA has a great 10- or 12-pack of terry face/wash/cloths/flannels in the children's section. Very inexpensive and an adequate small size.

I wash my dishcloth every day. What I find disgusting is people who use sponges at the kitchen sink and they never get washed, just rinsed.

And there are people who take old undies with them when they travel and toss as they use.

Personal washing is often done with, brushes, pumice stone and textured plastic.------not on my private parts it's not!


So, if the person before you uses soap on all of his/her parts, does that bother you? If you use a face cloth on your face, what do you use on the lower forty?

Obviously, this was not fully addressed in 2007!

"What I find disgusting is people who use sponges at the kitchen sink and they never get washed, just rinsed."
I put mine in the dishwasher every time I run it (pretty much every day). Doesn't everyone?

Some people use washcloths and wash their face then their private parts, using soap and rinsing out the cloth after the latter -- which really isn't much different than running it through a clothes washer. If you use your hand, don't you use it next time to wash your face? Or do you get a new hand each time? Frankly I find the idea of cloth between my fingers and some of my "nether parts" to be a better idea than my bare fingers poking around in there. But whatever turns you on.

Also, one of the most disgusting things I've experienced in Europe is those strings that you pull to flush the toilet, or turn on the light. They are almost always really dirty, and I try to grab the top of the string, since I'm pretty tall. I figure I'll lessen my chance of contracting a disease if I grap the upper end!!

but when did you actually CATCH anything from it?

the answer - never. no-one ever caught anything from the light pull or flush, or door-handle or taps, or.......did they? please let's not get silly about this.

Oh brother. Not another onslaught from the anti-germ brigade. And ones who are afraid to touch their privates in the shower, no less.

what's funniest - this thread was topped by someone that appeared to be advertising. And yet, controversy still manages to surround it.

else what's an immune system for?

Washcloths suck.

Just apply soap to body for chrissake, in those regions that merit that sort of attention.

dforurth,

My friend in college called those regions, "The areas of social significance".

I agree, washcloths are not my cup of tea, either.
