CORONAVIRUS: A run on toilet roll. Really?




I was baffled by reports in the press of a run on toilet paper in supermarkets.

It really tells me all I need know about society’s tenuous grip on reality and what is important to sustain life.

We are facing the possibility of restricted movement (lockdown) and I’d imagine the thought that we might need to garner together stocks of food and basic medicines has occurred to many. But toilet roll?
