Help! I'm in a public toilet and there's no paper

I hate using public toilets at the best of times. I've run in, done by business and THEN noticed they are out of paper

My options

1. Use soap and my hand

2. Clench cheeks and run to another cubicle. The issue here, is all the toilet doors open onto a lobby and there's loads of people outside

I'm not using my sock!

It's my hand isn't it :mad:

People will wonder what the hell I'm doing, I can hear everyone outside talking

I'm gonna sit here till it goes quiet, then run to another one.

My issue is what happens if they are all in use, and when I'm outside someone else goes into my one. I'm really stuck then.

It's so busy outside this morning

It's the rubbish paper dispenser. There's paper in there, I can see it....it's just not through the hole. Tried taking it off the wall to see if I can get into the back but it's locked with a key.

I'd take a photo to prove my situation, but I'm on my phone and can't really be bothered.

I'm using my hands.

Just shout for someone to chuck a roll over?? Not that embarrassing surely?

Better than scrubbing your arse with a sock anyway.

It's not your average cubicle, it's a closed room design.

Wait for someone to come in and ask him to give you a hand....

hahahahaha

It's not that kind of toilet. They are all individual rooms which are off a busy lobby. IF I had a pair of tweezers I could maybe pull it out.

I'm phoning a colleague to bring me some to the door

glenimp617 · 23 May 2016 at 12:00

I'm out!!!!

glenimp617 · 23 May 2016 at 12:00

sorry for the late reply, I had to run to a meeting straight after

It went quieter outside so managed to use another toilet

Did you get seen?

Trousers up or trousers round your ankles?

Thought about the possibility of CCTV?

I was cool as a cucumber, and I muttered (theres no soap left) under my breath in case anyone wondered what I was doing

Hahaha, OP redeemed.

How did you solve your dilemma?

Tried to walk normally whilst ensuring nothing escaped. Thank heavens there were a couple with the door left open.

Did you forget your wet wipes as well princess?

haha, I knew that would come back to bite me

I was thinking about this a little bit last night.

What I should have done it just sat in the sink.

You can get flushable wet wipes, but they are rubbish
