Does the UK use toilet paper?

When I was a child, there was a little poem we used to recite:

In days of old,

When Knights were bold,

And paper weren’t invented,

You’d wipe your arse

On a piece of grass

And walk away contented.

To be serious, we have been using it a long time. Where I lived as a child, in the Northeast of England, some people still had outside toilets, because there were still lots of Tyneside flats.

Traditionally, poor working class families hung squares of newspaper on string on a peg to use as toilet paper, though that was fast disappearing even 60 years ago.

I recall that there was a special kind of shiny paper you used to get in toilets in institutions like school, which was totally non-absorbent and utterly useless. I’m glad this has now disappeared. Horrible stuff.
