Nothing stopping you putting your own numbers on with a felt tip pen. Or is this a secret surveillance job?
Do you suspect someone is nicking your toilet paper? Or just being extravagant?
NB, Don't forget, you will need a log book to record the numbers.
You could put a cctv camera in there to really see who's up to no good.

Good grief. So the answer to the OP is actually "yes"

Although I suspect he meant sequentially numbered, which I have seen suggested (counting down) as a way to know how many sheets are left on a roll in an enclosed holder.

Having wondered how long a roll lasts, I wrote the date on one but by the time I'd finished the roll the date had faded or something.

Absolutely superb Colin!
Thanks also to Bill the OP, for this daft post: guaranteed to amuse.

Counting up or down as you remove sheets?

Just fix a calculator beside the holder.

Or a rev counter on the shaft.
Pull out the roll, reset the counter, then wind the roll back on. You then have a countdown to zero.
Interface the rev counter to a micro processor and it can text you when the roll's about to run out.

Blimey, there wouldn't be time for it to fade in our house :(
BTW - I'm now trying to visualize this... did you unwind the entire roll, write the date on the end and then wind it all up again...?!

I have never considered myself so, but ideas are changing!
Having been around the toilets in the house stocking up on loo rolls I realised how recently I had done the same trip and got to thinking it would be "fun" to keep a log of usage for a while. I can't believe I just said "log"...........
Thanks to all for your comments, an interesting thread.

You might get some skidding (in more ways than one).
