Embarrassing Question

[Liza]

I have a bucket for that very purpose in the shed. Simply wee in the bucket and swill it out on the compost heap with a bit of water butt water. Simples.

Exactly what I do

[snakeshack]

I tend to stand between the two compost daleks and pee in a watering can which then goes on the compost or is topped up with water and goes on the veg,no help for no 2's though but hopefully the compost toilet will arrive soon.

At land Rover trials there are never 'facilities' a tree or a bush then 'squat and watch'

Wear a long skirt and squat, whilst pretending to do some weeding

I can't imagine gardening in a long skirt!! Totally impractical unless you've just popped to the lottie for a quick harvest. I couldn't dig in a skirt.

bucket in the shed for me too just not trust the kids to hold the door for you though!!

Haven't got a lottie, but I do have a Shewee! When we go fishing not all places have facilities (and some of those that have I wouldn't go near!), Shewee's really useful - even if you're wearing trousers and thermals

Bucket in the shed for me too, I hold the door shut and I can see if anyone is coming near through the window. I was abit embarrased at first but when you gotta go you gotta go. There are some public loo's too far to walk to, but only a couple of mins in the car, so sometimes I just lock the shed leaving tools out and go there.

We're lucky - lottie is completely private - could run around naked if you really wanted too (we don't ).

If we didn't have that, I'm not sure what I'd do really (helpful as ever)... I'm pretty good at just waiting actually, years of practice in Courtrooms. I'd probably just hang on 'til I got home.

Bucket in shed for me too.
Just a thought though- why not get 4 pallets or old bits of fence panels and tie them together into a sort of compost shape. You could leave your bucket in there.

I have 2 sheds - one is the "glass shed" where I keep tools and grow stuff and the other is a tiny broken down old thing. I keep a bucket in the old shed to wee in and just pour it onto the compost heap.

If you don't have a shed etc., are there any trees/bushes down a quiet part of the site where you could go and hide behind? Otherwise what about (this is going to sound stupid, but it does work ok!) wearing a long cape and using a bucket. Ok people can see you but everything is hidden underneath the cape. This cape idea is very useful if you get stuck in a traffic jam on a motorway for example

My mum promotes her technique of pulling up, opening the off-side front AND rear doors and squatting between the two. Of course, if there are several passengers in the car it defeats the whole object!

Our allotment committee is investigating possibility of installing a composting toilet on communal space. Just waiting to hear from council about planning consents. When no one is looking I'll be discharging my excess nitrogen onto my compost heap.

When I was in india I saw women field workers lift their skirt and pee like a man. It just shot out. Maybe they had one of your shewees. Who knows? Maybe western women feel they must squat to go.

It's the drip dry I couldn't cope with.

[Brengirl]

I always thought it was a couple of shakes that did it
