I saw that someone on Blue Sky had trouble accessing this story, and here is Jodi responding as quickly as possible. Thank you Jodi! It is an absolute pleasure to read this story again.
You have brought me so much joy during some remarkably difficult times starting from 14 years ago when I first found Just One Damned Thing After Another. It was the first book I've ever bought after simply seeing the cover.
I didn't look at anything inside, I walked straight to the register, because that title said everything about my life in the moment. Now you are my favorite author alongside Ray Bradbury.
I’ve just reread all of your St Mary’s and Time Police novels for the FIFTH time! Just can’t get enough of them and I’m eagerly awaiting the next Time Police novel, so thank you very much for this short story.
Re: toilet rolls: I used to watch out for Wilko’s delivery van and shoot down there at 7.30 am to snap up toilet rolls as they were pit on the shelf. Crazy times indeed!
Brilliant as always. I was laughing from line two. But a question. Where did St Mary’s get the massive horde of bog rolls from. Oops! From where did St Mary’s get the massive horde of bog rolls? ☺️
Two years ago I bought my brother Just One Damned Thing After Another for Christmas. Just before Christmas last year I received a message from him thanking me for buying him the book as few things are better than the sheer joy of laughing uncontrollably and unapologetically in public at something in the book you're reading. No other present has ever earned such a response. I'll have to let him read this too. Thank you for making me look good.
Google AI kept reassuring me it was included in the short story catalogues! Upon asking it to reconsider its answer, as I have all the short story collections and found no sign of the toilet roll action anywhere amongst them, Google AI devices I was correct and that I should BUY it on Amazon which chucked me out and sent me back to Google. Purely by chance Jodi popped up further down the list of Google's suggestions and I am now happily caught up to speed. Thank you Super Jodi☺️.
Thank you, I think this may well become my favourite word, the leprechaun in my house keeps disappearing stuff so now I can tell Aelfric to stop twocking!
That's so funny, definitely worth reading. We have used it now, but even before the lockdown we had a stash of toilet paper in the loft, because the not much missed at Boris Johnson said there was going to be a shortage. He blamed the EU (of coursed he did!) But it was very useful

What is twocked? As I presume it’s said
Taken Without Consent - relating to vehicle crime. For example - Oh no - my car has been twocked!
