Toilet Tissue

Double ply just means 2 plys. There is no regulation as to how thick it needs to be.

Suggestion buy something with a baby on it. Baby stuff always has higher quality.

There was a spec. Gone now and nobody informed the consumers as usual:

Following the South African Tissue Manufacturers Association (SATMA) being disbanded, toilet paper has been fairly unregulated in the country. Previously, the association held the standard that 2-ply rolls of toilet paper should have 200 or 350 sheets (squares), with 1-ply at 500 sheets.

Most brands in South Africa still stick to these standards, even though there is no regulatory need to, offering rolls of 2-ply toilet paper at 350 sheets.

However, unwary consumers will find certain brands in the country offering rolls that contain only 250, but charging the same price.

How SA toilet paper can be a total rip off

Beyond a preference for one- or two-ply, many South African consumers pay no heed to paper that takes the plunge – but new data shows that you could be getting ripped off.

Some years ago a group of guys from the company went to India for a project that was in some rural area. The one White Afrikaaner guy got the runs on the long drive there. The story goes that they stopped along the road for him to go and there was absolutely nothing for him to wipe his ass, other than his own socks!

I can't remember the Afrikaans name they gave him after that 🤣
 
This is the solution.

Toilet paper only is not recommended. You need to use a bidet afterwards as well.

Some folk don't even wipe properly and their briefs and g-strings have stains...sies maan. Can smell them if they stand next to you.

In Malaysia my company booked me into a hotel where the toilet and shower were in one. There was no toilet paper. At reception I was told to use the shower rose on a hose to wash after using the toilet. This meant standing in water with fecal matter. You guessed it, no bacon or pork sausages at breakfast either.

Close😂, Sokkies was definitely a part of it. I keep thinking something like Sakkie Ballas...whatever that might mean Or whatever.
He had a few different names for other stuff as well.

Always wore shorts or knee length pants and would never unzip or lower it like a normal person to take a leak. Would reach up his thigh through his pants and take his junk out through the side. Never ever saw that before, or after

Interesting. I had a relative who worked in Malaysia for a while. He was booked in a 3 bedroom apartment in a complex with a swimming pool and proper a/c and Western style bathroom/toilet. Nice thing was they sold Asahi dry beer in a small shop which was part of the apartment complex. That was like 10 years ago.

Depending on which part of Malaysia, you may find the ablution hoses next to the toilet, same as in the airports in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, where Muslims have to use hoses and are not allowed to wipe with the right hand with TP.
 
When it comes to Europe I see electric bidets (washlets) are making inroads. Toto has 100s of dealerships across Europe and other companies such as Kohler are copying them. I have a Hyundai and a Toto here in Cape Town, still have to connect the Toto up.

Also got a portable Toto Washlet, you fill it up with warm water, it is AAA battery operated and you have 26 seconds of warm water to wash your butt with.

Washlets are the best thing ever. Once you use these things, you don't want to go back to TP, baby soft or even the wet wipe one.

My choice. And you get a discount if you buy 2x18 rolls, so everyone think you're still hoarding toilet paper, and then when you get home, your wife is like “Fsck sake, there's still half a pack in the cupboard, and I facking told you to stop hoarding toilet paper”.
 
any brain cell retard that thinks they can wash peanut butter off your hands with running water is seriously thick...
