Kleenex are far more hygienic though. I can remember my grandma boiling up hankies on the gas stove...in a pan. My Grandad had been on the beer and was a bit intoxicated.
He came in and helped himself to some of the 'soup' that was boiling away(hankies) and a chunk of buttered bread......he told my grandma that the soup was 'short o' summat' and suggested she chucked another onion in.
I don't think she ever told him that he had had 'hankie broth'.
