    OH pees on ours whenever - saves a long walk up the garden.  Always has even when it was a shorter walk in Belgium.

    That's an idea - keep a compost bin in the loo :)

    I keep a jug and a watering can beside the throne.

    Essential for female gardeners but I understand male pee is better anyway for reasons of acidity.   You'll be in good company Pete.

    I am too short to do that and it's so much more complicated for a women.

    Just leave your Shewee or Go Girl device on the lid of the composter, ready for action.  (Not that I am doing it, mind you, I struggle to make the effort to empty out my kitchen counter compost bucket every few days.. no way I'm hiking to the compost bin for a wee).

    I keep telling OH there's a design fault every time I have to trek in to use the loo whereas he can just raise the lid on a compost bin and relieve himself.  Naturally, once indoors I fetch us a drink which keeps us hydrated but perpetuates the problem.

    He needs to rig up a toilet seat, funnel, and an old hose leading into the back of the compost bin.. for your contribution.  And maybe a bit of bamboo screening, if you have neighbors.   :)
