Kids today have no idea what they are.
Mine are both in their twenties now but when they were younger and in school, I told them about the joys of shiny toilet roll back in the day. I'm pretty sure they thought I was winding them up.
They also seemed a little dubious about a certain PE teacher in a Caerphilly comp who insisted on watching to make sure we all had a proper shower - yep, those really were the good old days.
I'm think my father in law (93), still uses it.

Izal?
Luxury!
We had squares of old newspapers threaded on a piece of string.
Football is the biggest sport in the world. I am unsure why they expect low prices in the round of 16 in the biggest club competition on the planet.
What do they expect 20 quid each?.
The thread has moved on from football Lord K . Please keep up. Now, have you or havent you got a hardship story about a -25 freezing cold toilet , 400 miles from your house that was inhabited by hyenas and dinosaurs who ate your great nan when she slipped getting of the toilet 58 years ago ?
That Izal type bog wipe lives on in schools but only as tracing paper. It was vile. Newspaper ( hence the expression " Bum Fodder " )
used to leave printing ink over your arse.
