I forgot...

...to mention last week, after a trip to Waitrose:

They have a section of one aisle designated (according to the plackard above) Table Stationery.

It's, like, napkins and disposable plates and such.

Table Stationery?

I ask you.

Does the person who mentioned bathroom stationery and Twyford know that Twyford's used to be (maybe still is) one of the major makers of whatis tweely known as "sanitary ware" i.e. bog pans. And when did lavatory paper become toilet paper I want to know?
The phrase table stationery had already been earmarked for a forthcoming column - does obscure column in provincial paper count for OED??? Spelunca
