Revision history [back]

When I worked in Af'stan we used to have a strip wash with a bucket of warm water in the washroom. When trekking in the Andes the porters used to give us a fruit bowl sized dish of water to bathe in each evening and we made do with that. Is it necessary to go to the expense and trouble of introducing an extra high level tank and piping to have a cold shower when half a bucket of warm water will do the same job? If a metal bucket is used it can go straight onto the fire for warming up the water.
