We're happy to use site facilities and equally happy to use our own, it all depends on the day, the circumstances and our mood. We can both have a quick navy shower from one 10L tank full but that is slightly up from a strip wash 😉.
Using our own facilties is certainly a wake up call for the precious commodity water is and how we should value and conserve it. And say thank you every day for not having to collect and empty it from a clean closeby source. Spare a thought for those who walk for miles, physically carry it and it isn't clean and treated like ours!

Hey Bolero Boy, they must both be very skinny!
No chance of any nudge, nudge in my tiny cubicle. (Allegedly).
I did have to share a Ladies shower (with half-doors) once with my wife at Cherbourg marina in France late at night when the Gents was locked and overheard a new arrival comment to her friend on the pair of hairy legs in view.

If we only used facility sites then we probably would not use ours. Why clean out after ourselves when there are good site facilities is my take. However we do use no facility sites as well.
Also shower came in hand when renovating our toilet and bathroom 5 years ago. Also excavated and put in a raised base for oil tank and a fire barrier at the same time. Having to renew floor screeds and other works meant about 3 weeks with the bathroom out of action. OH used the caravan shower. I stripped off and stood in a large builders bucket on the back patio for my clean off whilst the barbie was getting ready for cooking

Posted on 08/04/2017 13:14 by Rod235Thanks to all who replied to my post and the helpful tips regarding showering in the van, I am also a little baffled by all the replies from those that do not use their own shower ????
