pmccarthy Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 This is a serious question. We are getting worried about the lack of dunny rolls, will run out some time this week. Is there an alternative that will work in our aerated tank? Most things will not. We live in the bush and if it bungs up I will be the one up to my elbows in soggy magazines.
onetrack Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 A bulk pack of biodegradable table napkins. They are 33cm x 33cm, so you might like to cut them up into strips. https://www.discountpartysupplies.com.au/biodegradable-large-napkins-bulk-pack-of-200-ecotwln01.html?gclid=Cj0KCQjw6sHzBRCbARIsAF8FMpXrF82wPujlhfaJKglrqgiQwxYPRGbEXUfzhMe7vJrhqOrr7gopEeoaAsLLEALw_wcB 1

Jerry_Atrick Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 We have a reasonable supply, but I am going to buy another pack to be on the safe side. Still can't believe dunny roll has run o0ut while food is in abundance... Anyway. other option is to paper-bag the wipe waste and burn it...
red750 Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 Jerry, this what "food in abundance" looks like in Oz right now. City folks are bussing to the country towns to strip the supermarket shelves. 1 1
Jerry_Atrick Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 Blimey! Actually, in the supermarket today and the whole frozen section mins the deserts was empty.. Loony bin has descended upon us all... 1
pmccarthy Posted March 17, 2020 Author Posted March 17, 2020 Wife went in at 7am with her seniors card and got one pack of dunny roll. Maybe we will see this through! 1
red750 Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 On Sunrise, a supermarket has security people HANDING OUT dunny rolls to ensure shoppers only get one pack each. 1
onetrack Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 I've just found out the reason why people are still panic-buying massive amounts of toilet paper. If someone coughs in a crowded place, 100 people shXX themselves.
red750 Posted March 18, 2020 Posted March 18, 2020 I received a video by email from my regular supplier of funny emails, but the file is too large to upload. It is called the The Dealer. The car pulls up to a shifty looking bloke on a street corner. He has a beard, and is wearing a zippered jacket, jeans and a beanie. The guy in the car winds down his window, and yells to the shifty looking guy, who looks around furtively, then wanders over to the car. The guy in the car pulls a wad of notes out of the glovebox and hands it to the shifty guy, who quickly checks it, then looking around again cautiously, unzips his jacket and pulls out a roll of toilet paper and a bottle of hand sanitizer, which he hands to the guy in the car, then makes his exit.
onetrack Posted March 18, 2020 Posted March 18, 2020 There's a heap of those videos, every video maker obviously has plenty of time on his hands! https://www.google.com/search?q=The+Dealer+video+toilet+paper&sxsrf=ALeKk001dFqMEa-Xt0CM2tjoMiJTH8fUYA:1584500220135&source=lnms&tbm=vid
Yenn Posted March 18, 2020 Posted March 18, 2020 I went to our local supermarket this morning. It was packed with people from the City 30km away. They must have emptied the city supermarkets and are now buying up the bush. Not a toilet roll or hand sanitizer in sight. They did have baby wipes but I suppose what was wanted was big wipes, There was a highly visible security man on the prowl, but after talking to him I am sure he didn't know what he was likely to come across, The media has achieved its aim, to scare the population into stupidity.
spacesailor Posted March 18, 2020 Posted March 18, 2020 Just tried four super shops in two suburbs. Not a dunny roll between them. $5 dollar notes will be in short supply soon. spacesailor 1
pmccarthy Posted March 18, 2020 Author Posted March 18, 2020 They should never have withdrawn the one dollar note.
red750 Posted March 18, 2020 Posted March 18, 2020 We are all going to have blocked sewerage pipes with people flushing tissues and paper towels which don't break down in the sewer.
octave Posted March 18, 2020 Posted March 18, 2020 We are all going to have blocked sewerage pipes with people flushing tissues and paper towels which don't break down in the sewer. Funny you should mention that, today in our street there was a work crew and a truck with a tank which had written on it with the words "Don't be fooled by flushable" I assume the truck was unblocking the sewer. 1
kgwilson Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 On Mad as Hell last night the eye in the sky when asked about the toilet paper shortage reckoned it was because so many people are talking out of their arses at present. 1
