  Well – I’m stockpiling 6 packs of pasta and some Aspirin in the morning 🙂

  [Not that quilted Andrex itself is under threat. At my local supermarket, it is only the aisles of no-brand budget paper that are empty, the 10p a roll stuff. All the posh paper — your “Skin Kind”, your “Touch of Silk”, your “Shea Butter” is still there in the normal quantities.
  Does this mean that only the poor (daft, uneducated, hysterical wretches) are stockpiling? Or that in a crisis, loo-roll standards are the first to go? Because, personally, as Armageddon looms, I wouldn’t want to be stuck in the bunker with only the scratchy, narrow-gauge, misaligned paper that comes apart in your hands. I think I would want my last loo visits to be comfy ones.]

    Could be the loo roll manufacturers way of price gouging. Remove all the cheap types of loo roll from the shelves, and make those who absolutely need to have toilet paper fly Sheba or Andrex quilted at four times the price?

      Thought Sheba was cat food? 😛

        Connoisseurs of toilet paper will recognise Sheba as a niche luxury brand.
