Things We Didn't Know Loo Roll

Now where’s the best place to learn something new? Yes alright it’s school but indulge us for a moment would you? With the Things We Didn’t Know Loo Roll the toilet becomes the ultimate seat of learning – concealed within its rolls of paper are countless statements of varying degrees of truth (no-one said it had to be true to be educational!). Of course some of it definitely is true – Mageirocophobia is the fear of cooking for example. Some of it is admittedly just a little bit silly – Owls do not make love in the rain as it is too wet to woo is a favourite. There are loads of them on this roll so even if one or two of them are a little bit suspect you can at least pull off another sheet and carry on learning. This toilet roll is a great fun item to casually leave in the smallest room waiting for unsuspecting guests to discover its content. And if they don’t agree with what they read well they know what they can do with it… Painstakingly compiled and an almost-endless source of entertainment (some design wag has even printed the legend Poo and Learn on the packaging) the Things We Didn’t Know Loo Roll will make you spend an awful lot more time in the toilet.

  • Gift – Home & Office

Price : £ 4.99
