One of the jobs was to research a certain brand of T P. It had to be bought in a "certain" Supermarket. For 3 weeks I had to load the boot of the car with 12 rolls and call to the 12 designated houses to ask certain questions as to what they thought of the TP. Questions like :- "Was it soft to the touch" "Were there enough sheets" "Was it absorbent enough" As you can imagine I got to know these 12 people very well at the end of the 3 weeks. By the way a man I used to work for called Izal and Bronco TP "Skid Variety"!!!!!!! A long time ago I did Market Research. One of the jobs was to research a certain brand of T P.

I must learn to be clearer in my statements. ;-) I don't know about Ireland, but my Swiss friends loo paper felt like sandpaper. :-( --Guess it was a local thingie. If I ever visit them again I am putting a roll of my own TP in my suitcase.
