A 28-year-old British woman has revealed that she used ripped out pages of her passport and used them as toilet paper.

According to UK Metro the woman identified as Faye Wilson was refused entry into Thailand because her passport had missing pages.

She was too ashamed to reveal the truth to immigration officials when they asked her why her document was light.

"Thai immigration just opened my passport and started looking through it, and asked "what's happened here"?," she said.

"I just said that I had lost the pages because I was too embarrassed to explain the real reason.

"Before I could explain more, they had deported me back to Dubai and then to Glasgow and confiscated my documents."

The 28-year-old hairdresser, from the Lake District, had used two pages of her passport to wipe herself on a drunken night out.

"We were walking from one bar to the next and we must have been desperate for a wee and obviously didn't have any toilet roll," she said.

"We decided it would be a good idea to use my passport, which is obviously really stupid."
