    Do you look under the stalls to see whose shoes are in there? no! that's strange

    Do you talk to people while in there? not while sitting on the loo, but washing my hands etc yes

    If you're talking to someone when you go in, do you continue the conversation? not in the loo

    Do you change the roll if they're empty? yes

    Do you change the roll if they're *almost* empty? nope

    Do you change the roll so that the paper goes *over* and not *under*? nope

    Do you use your phone while in there? This may be linked to the #2 question above ... yep, usually check BB and FB

    Are you constantly dismayed by the fact that people you work with have lower standards than you in terms of hygiene and adequacy of flushing? yes

    Do you use them? Of course

    Do you #2 in them? When required (but I do try to make sure that nobody else in in there and I use a toilet paper nest to obscure any splashes)

    Do you *cough* break wind in them? When required

    Do you look under the stalls to see whose shoes are in there? No

    Do you talk to people while in there? I have done

    If you're talking to someone when you go in, do you continue the conversation? I think that's a conversation killer

    Do you change the roll if they're empty? Yes

    Do you change the roll if they're *almost* empty? No that's wasting paper

    Do you change the roll so that the paper goes *over* and not *under*? (spot the Type A ... spot her!) No

    Do you use your phone while in there? This may be linked to the #2 question above ... No - too afraid I might drop it in there!

    Are you constantly dismayed by the fact that people you work with have lower standards than you in terms of hygiene and adequacy of flushing? Not constantly - just sometimes

    Do you use them? Yes but only if I really need to and I never sit on the seat.

    Do you #2 in them? I try my very hardest not to. I have left shopping many times before I have finished to go home instead though. I also wont use a loo that has evidence that someone has done a #2.

    Do you *cough* break wind in them? Only when I flush and cough at the same time

    Do you look under the stalls to see whose shoes are in there? Nope, I could not care less.

    Do you talk to people while in there? No, even at home DH knows not to talk to me when I am on the loo

    If you're talking to someone when you go in, do you continue the conversation? Nope, unless it is DD1 who likes to ask 100 queastions while in the loo.

    Do you change the roll if they're empty?Yes, if I can't find any roles I always tell whoevers house we are at that there is no more paper. I will also tell someone who is going into a public loo if there is no paper. I always have tissues in my bag for such occasions.

    Do you change the roll if they're *almost* empty? Sort of like previous question, I will tell person it is almost out if there is no more paper anywhere to be seen. I hate it when my DH leaves a small amount of paper on an old roll on the bench. So wastefull.

    Do you change the roll so that the paper goes *over* and not *under*? (spot the Type A ... spot her!) Nope I don't care which way it goes.

    Do you use your phone while in there? This may be linked to the #2 question above ... Nope, never. That is yukky to me.

    Are you constantly dismayed by the fact that people you work with have lower standards than you in terms of hygiene and adequacy of flushing? Yes, very much so. I worked somewhere with only women and it suprised me how the loo was left sometimes.

    Do you #2 in them? Yes, that is what toilets are for. - I have no problem at work (one big toilet room, no stalls), prefer not to with public ones mostly due to lack of soap for hand washing, but hey everybody poos and I do suffer from IBS so often have little choice when out.

    Do you *cough* break wind in them? Yes

    Do you look under the stalls to see whose shoes are in there? No

    Do you talk to people while in there? Only my children if they are with me

    Do you change the roll if they're empty? Yes

    Do you change the roll if they're *almost* empty? Sometimes

    Do you change the roll so that the paper goes *over* and not *under*? (spot the Type A ... spot her!) Over

    Do you use your phone while in there? This may be linked to the #2 question above ... Not really, only if you count checking for sms's, missed calls whilst out shopping

    Sometimes. I find many low flush toilets these days are just crap and often take 2 flushes. Honestly, I just don't get too fussed by it these days.
    One past work place one lady complained that someone was not flushing and not using toilet paper!! Poor love obviously had not come across the concept of a 'floater'. Made me paranoid in the toilet after that, I would not go in if I saw her go in and then I would always wait till fully flushed and then double check 3 or so times.
