you need a broadsheet for that...

Am I the only one here who remembers the bundle of quartered sheets of newspapers hanging from a string in an outdoor bog? Always a broadsheet, usually the local weekly newspaper.

This was before four colour printing was introduced so the paper was of a very different texture. More absorbent.

Still better than the institutional wax sheet bog paper. I think the last time I used that was on a British Rail train sometime in the early '80's. Or might have been a car ferry. Grim and unpleasant. In every way.

Young 'uns, dont known how lucky they are.
