Toilet help

[carthorse]

Away for the first trip in the new van next weekend we have a good idea what to pack as we've been tuggers for ten years or so,but we have never used the caravan toilet for solids.
So how do you do a do do (sorry) in the van not a pleasant subject but we need to know.
Any advice greatly appreciated.
Lindsay

Yippe we all love a toilet thread.

When will manufacturers get it right and fit a magazine rack and book shelf in the loo.

And who says men can’t do two things at once.....

Blade open, get in the right position to make your deposit straight down into the tank.
If you’ve done it without touching the sides, congratulate yourself in getting a Hole In One.
Practice makes perfect, so give those campsite toilets a miss in future.

You don’t know who has been using them.

 

[Viennese]

Blade open for me - tried the happy bowl things but agree they just fill the cassette up and are expensive. I have an excellent aim (hole in one!) and it just drops straight through. I will always use external facilities if poss just not to fill cassette up. We'll be on to fluids next, and I use bio washing liquid

 

[jollyrodger]

You need one of these .

A bit difficult in Lidl carpark so ...

Happy bowl liners for us, saves the tooth brush getting dirty. Lol

 

[scotjimland]

So how do you do a do do

we've been tuggers for ten years or so,but we have never used the caravan toilet for solids.

10 years... wow .. see a doctor

Sometimes I can take after that well known blues singer, Loose Bowells.

I always use proper bowl liners, search for Happy Bowl in ebay or Amazon. Their instructions say to keep the flap closed before putting in the liner but I always leave it open so the extract fan can do its job. Then flush. If there are any msrks I wipe them off with toilet paper rather than the brush and then flush again.

Should that be 7 sheets? Fold or not to fold.

genuinely puzzled by this question..

 

[Podney]

genuinely puzzled by this question..

Maybe you are over thinking this one. Seems to me that they have been tuggers for too long and have always used on-site facilities for number twos.
This may be due to the phenomena known as elite tugger psychosis,whereby the patient adopts a superior position before vacating the bowel,only manageable in the wider space available in a site toilet block. Precise details of this position are only available to tuggers,therefore as classified information are not to be posted on this forum.
Once you have been a tugger for long enough you may qualify for this top level of security information and could of course spill the beans......although if you’ve eaten too many of them there could be some delay whilst you complete the motion.
I wouldn’t trouble yourself too much over the problem raised in the original post,although,on reflection,it is certainly more interesting than bxxxxt,the weather,Corbyn,flt’s,the price of stuff in France,and Old Mo’s “jokes”.
And now I must go........nature calls.

 

[The Dudess]

We have some of these ...

But we do try and avoid No 2s when possible

Happy bowls - wouldn't be without them.

 

[scotjimland]

Seems to me that they have been tuggers for too long and have always used on-site facilities for number twos.

so what is the difference.. ?

are they going to become FLTs have they been reading too many Faceache pages about all the fabulous free car parks

I've been both tugger and chugger.. (presently a tugger) . only difference is engine not inside caravan,

and my toilet isn't a phone box, it has space to swing two cats and a couple of kittens..

perhaps that's the problem.. van toilet is too small for No 2s

I wouldn’t trouble yourself too much over the problem raised

not bovvered . just puzzled

Happy bowl !
Mine groans when I sit on it

 

[tonka]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I can’t believe that this is a serious question!!
Lolololololol

Believe it... there are people out there who spend 10's of thousands on motorhomes and wont poo in them !!

 

[StephandJohn]

We use campsite loos as much as possible but use these Amazon product ASIN B0758F3XP3 if we have to. You have to get rid of them them in the rubbish but it saves filling up the cassette with liners. Not cheap but worth it if you only need them occasionally.

 

[Lenny HB]

I don't get it either, we were tuggers for #5 years been Motorhomes for 10. Used site loos for the occasional pee don't think I've ever used them for a No.2.
Like me own nice clean bog.

 

[Jands]

Remember to open the slider to see how those cute fish are doing.
Noticed when cold they put on a paper coat.

Open the slide, a short flush to wet the bowl (prevents shit clinging to the bowl) empty bowel, wipe arse, flush and brush (you do have a bog brush??? ), close slide.... Easy.

Our method too, with the addition that we have combined toilet/shower so I use the showere head to flush - much more powerful than toilet flush.

Lindsay, once you get used to using onboard facilities then the world of wildcamping and Aires opens up to you - much wider use of a MH as opposed to a caravan.

Second cassette, as we have, extends 'range'. Friends have 3 cassettes.

Another vote for using Bio washing(capsules) - cheaper, easier(just drop in - cassette neck or down the toilet)

happy bowls? why not line the bowl with a tesco carrier bag (other purveyors of crap are available) take a dump then dispose of discreetly (hang it in a tree with the dog crap bags)

 

[golly]

@carthorse I guess you know by now that you need to accept some leg pulling on this site but it's all in good fun. As to your question, whatever works for you, flap open, flap shut, makes no difference it all ends up in the same place . Enjoy your weekend

 

[PhilandMena]

Experienced Funsters know how to do a number 2 that requires no bowl cleaning afterwards. Open flap and stand on seat with a bungy cord tied between both knees to a round disc with cross-hairs. It's important to get your head in the right position as this has a direct relationship on the target area when you release your load. With a few practices you can hit the inside of the cassette every time without touching the sides. Sadly does not work with curry. If you do have a curry, you will need one of these.

Even better, crap in Tesco's crap supermarkets. I used to work for them.

 

[TerryL]

You know what? I think these toilet threads are getting better!

Or is it, as Tonka says, Saturday night/Sunday morning when it's perhaps a little more relevant?

 

[Vanderek]

hope this advice is useful

Why wouldn't anyone NOT use their own toilet? I don't get it! We bought ours with a loo, and a shower, and they get used for what they were intended.
