Showering in the caravan

Dog beds (during the day), dog coats (it sometimes rains when we're in the van!), sacks of dog food & bowls, walking boots (overnight) and we also have a clever thingumy-bob which we clip over the door and gives us hooks for 4 (often wet) coats. We could, of course, keep all that in an awning if we wanted the hassle of putting up and taking down every ime we move - but we don't! QED! 

Just wait till you get hot water through the taps, then it will heat up as it goes

Wow so many replies to my post, please let me explain, when we became OAP 10 years back we started touring for approximately 12 weeks per year and this year after updating our old caravan decided to cut down on the expense by using CLS for some of our breaks ( these are sites with less facilities surprise you did not know EUROTRAVELLER with you being a member ?)  So all I wanted was some tips on showering in the van , once again thanks for all the helpful replies

Yes, by choice. There we meet quite a few very pleasant like minded campers and after all we have all the facilities we need and know who uses them.

We have the older [30 odd years old Aquaroll] and the Alde 3010 using gas, and have no issues both showering from a single fill.

If one has the facilities on board they are some of the best sites to go to  ,and you tend to get real proper caravaners on them ,pity there are not more,and a good strip wash for a few days is fine for us

Thanks JVB, if sites like that are such a good idea then I'm surprised the rest of Europe doesn't have them. But Brits do seem to be unique in liking lavishly equipped caravans and spartan sites. 

Sometimes less is more as far as sites go. 

We always use our onboard facilities otherwise what's the use in having them with our Motorhome we have a 200ltr fresh water tank so can last about 4/5 days with both of us showering every day.same as others have said ,wet,soap up and rinse.we also have about 100ft of hose on board so filling up again without moving,no problem.

they are probably like an aire but with better spacing more secure,and nice pitches and available to most types of leisure vehicles without discrimination
