I remember when I was growing up you would never buy them from a chemist. The barber would ask you if you wanted anything for the weekend I was to afraid to ask, the local pub had a machine, but I think he purposely left it empty I would never go to the bar and complain because he would shout out " Whats empty" eventually when I did manage to get one I was worried about to expiry date, and my wallet had a permanant ring embosed in it.How times have changed But I still would not buy them face to face.
I remember going on holiday with Len once and we where all to embarassed to buy bog roll.
