Mrs Morgan gleefully explained to Piers that the reason they had run out was that HE had refused to be seen on Social Media buying toilet roll

Michelangelo has a flash of inspiration as he looks at his hand. Maybe God could hand him a new roll? Or.....

In our brave new world of house arrest, curfew and less soaps on telly I read one and laughed out loud

"There is a military plan for the Marines to invade France and liberate all of the toilet paper that they can find. It will happen on B-Day!"

Wensleydale we could meet and present it to you but social distancing and "Two is company, three is a crowd and not allowed" prevents this, so take it away and our overlords have allowed you one extra visit outside today. Congrats

I call BS on this, I saw the photo of the guy working from home with aircraft landing gear in the kitchen.

Prince Philip suddenly realises that self isolating with Betty to Sandringham with only 120 staff, means the odd item will get missed.
