We're pretty new to all this here gubbins so if I'm about to ask an obvious question, so be it.

We've read the reviews on peeing in a bucket, so bought a proper bog with chemicals and stuff. We've got this tent to put it in too. Now it says it's also a shower tent.  What advise have people got for siting the toilet tent, how to have a shower without complaints from the neighbours (yes I know no showing off my well honed Welsh body, OK showing off and well honed may both have been exaggerations). We did buy one of them solar showers so get some hot water for the end of the day (doesn't it do well). Does it really matter that the water is draining in to the ground?

Any comments greatly appreciated, including loose weight you Welsh whale. :)

Hi

Site toilet  tent with door facing your unit that way you won't frighten the neighbors. If you have a window keep it covered when in use.   As for shower I would a Maplin car shower , Put your solar shower on top of you car heat up the water then put hot water in a bucket and use the car shower or heat a kettle of water and do the same.  For water going into ground you could end up with a very soggy toilet area, we use a cheap kiddie padding pool as shower base.  Works well folds up small.  Hope this helps.
