If there’s one thing Greta Thunberg will pry from my cold dead hands, it’s my kitchen roll. Meanwhile at my friend’s house, a kitchen roll house complete with three children, it’s an amenity that is deployed with ease and without repercussion. Some years ago, I became a kitchen roll house. You can rely solely on dish cloths, which were the real grafters in my house growing up, while the kitchen roll watched on from its pristine perch. In fact, I might make a commitment to giving them a go, if I can ever bear to let my paper roll run out.
