What strange sites you go to. All the ones I've ever visited have individual shower cubicles so you don't have to rub up to anyone else's short and curlies. But perhaps that's a seaman thing. I was assuming you would realise I meant S&Cs that had parted company with their original owners! You should camp with devout Muslims then; they are required to shave their genitals, so if you see a guy squatting over a wash-hand basin lathering his nether regions, just mutter ' Insha Allah' and move on.

Nah, you don't wanna do that. Thanks to the stupid laws they've introduced here that would constitute a racially-motivated crime and get you serious time at Lizzie's Pleasure, to paraphrase Seamus.

I use the M/H shower every day when away, sometimes twice. It only takes me two or three minutes.
What I cannot understand, and what is contrary to the laws of physics is that when SWMBO has a shower, (again every day) she uses at least 10 gallons of water and takes 10 - 15 minutes. I kid you not! This, despite the Truma only heating 11 or is it 13 litres at a time. Admittedly, the water is so hot it is unbearable at max temp, so she does adjust the water temp to suit. But ten gallons! I ask you! Two full containers.
The water is heated by gas as well. Keep meaning to get an electric heating collar fitted. (Anyone know if they are any good? Yes. I know I could search on the dark side, it has been asked before).
I don't mind it when we are on a super-pitch with tap next to the van, but on a site or at a rally where the water-points are a fair distance away I spend half the bloody morning trundling containers back and forth!

If I'd know you use real campsites (and super-pitches too) I would never have spoken to you in the first place. How can you lower yourself to that state?

Would love to use my shower but since my water tank is only fucking 45 litres I can't be fucking arsed to have to keep filling it every day so I just wash in a puddle or my own urine, or someone else's, if its dry outside.

R ???GER Hope she doesn't read your comment then, Rog, otherwise you in for another tongue-lashing (the threat of that will have Tuggles jumping to the wrong conclusion, again).

Why do people (and I use that term loosely) keep mentioning my name in their posts, usually in a derogatory fashion? It's almost as if I have acquired a rep as a dirty old git. How can that have happened? I'm a clean-living, well balanced responsible citizen with a dog that is going to eat Barry's bollocks. I'm the perfect friend to have, really. Please don't keep taking my name in vain............... Ya feckin' old tosspots!

Geoff, I must rib Barry as much as I do you, but for the avoidance of doubt I'd like to make it clear that I do so only because I think you're both first rate guys who are able to take a laugh. I'm also minded that both of you take the pish out of me on occasions but that is something I simply won't stand for - you hear me! Nevertheless, you have my unreserved apology if I've ever offended you inadvertently.

Nearly right. Correct answer was ... a shower. When I used to have a motor home I was too fat to get in the shower of some or attacked by the shower curtain in others determined to cut off my supply of oxygen. So good old baby wipes for me although I use a wire brush for my bum in the interests of hygiene.

But where do you keep the wire brush afterwards?

In the fridge so germs don't multiply.
