??? Have camp sites got rid of water taps then! ????
As far as I'm aware water taps are available on site, but they don't do .serviced pitches for tents yet. EHU yes water no,
So although I can fetch by any means I choose, It still means backache every-time I want a brew.
Yes I could use a pop bottle, but as we use no facility sites that's an awful lot of trips to the field tap at 300ml a go
Now this problem has been brought up many times this year from starting with the design students onwards.
Still waiting for a working solution
So as we use none facility sites, we need enough water for cooking washing up, washing us, and brewing up
Bad back, knakered knee. Umpteen trips to the water point out of the question. lifting 5 gal every time I need water not good. Bending down not a problem, it's the getting up again that's hard
Now if I could fill one 10gal carrier tote it on it's wheels and then pump it up to hand height then I would be on happy bunny.
Cost is also a factor so anything over £20 complete is a none stater
As is all the duff systems I've already bought and thrown

Hi Oldham, as you know we are working on a system like this for the same reasons as you. We managed to get a newer Aquaroll at the car boot sale last week, our 12v shower submirsible pump drops into this one (the old one had a smaller opening so the pump wouldn't fit), you can pull the shower head off the end of the pipe so we use the 12v pump plus its battery pack to pump water up to a usable level. It's working pretty well in the garden but the first live testing will be next weekend.
I like the look of the whale tap and that's ideally what I want with a pump but the bits are too pricey.
