Oooooh, sorry, but the thought of microfibre towels on my skin puts my teeth on edge It's bad enough using the cloths to clean the motorhome, they sort of catch on your fingers...
brian, its not that kind of microtowel, I think you mean the ones that have small loops a bit like velcro, these type I hate myself as you say they stick and catch, especially on unshaven faces my OH reports. The micro towels we have are just like lovely brushed cotten suede feel, they dry very quickly even hanging in the van.

We have found the best way is to use a flannel in each hand to remove as much water as possible before using ( if necessary) a towel. This results in a very wet flannel and an almost dry towel. It is much easier to carry spare flannels than spare towels.
We do that aswell when its wet weather and can't get the towels out for a good blow, as you say drying is easy and taking half a dozen flannels away takes up very little room.

They are like chamois leathers for drying humans off! Much beloved of competition swimmers and divers, can be purchased from sports shops and some leisure centres, and of course online. Wring out almost dry, old ones are brilliant for quickly wiping down bathroom after a shower as super absorbent and dry quickly. Look on www.zoggs.com

Right the ones we have are Large towels Gelert, small towels Trekmates. Both makes are classed and sold as 'travel towels' we bought them in a popular large 'Direct' sports shop at this time of year you will usually find them on special offer.
TTDA love your description "chamois leathers for drying humans" perfect.

We sold them in swimming pools and sports centres at work! Great for packing up small, but not for wrapping round you when water runs out mid shower in van!
