I have never read on the toilet. Well, I might have looked at the pictures in the catalogue that hung on a hanger in the outhouse to use as toilet paper. But I've been using indoor bathrooms for the past 72 years, so I'm not sure whether I read the ads at all. I read in bed, in my chair, and lately in the chair hammock. I've read on buses, trains, planes, but never in automobiles. I've read while eating, while sitting on the floor, and in my treehouse when I was a kid. I have a friend who used to read while driving on the freeway (!!), and another friend who used to read while walking. Hopefully both only read audiobooks while doing those things. I used to listen to audiobooks while driving on long trips, or while painting a room, but I rarely listen to them now. I prefer to hold a physical book in my hands.

Ah, how I remember squares of newspaper hanging in our outside toilet when I was child growing up with my maternal grandparents in Wembley. We had an inside toilet too, which had ‘Izal’ toilet paper, which I used to use as tracing paper. Thanks for reminding me Sandra❤️🐰
