Been there done that, in that very block. My treat of the week on a Sunday evening was visiting the co-op up at the roundabout, using a lovely warm toilet. Absolute heaven having a warm toilet block to do me business in.

Hi guys, great vlog! Just a quick hint. Always run fresh water through your water-filling hose before putting the end into your water tank. The water left in the hose from the previous filling will be stagnant and may hold some very nasty bacterial infections. There may also be an abundance of insects which have made the hosepipe home. You may be washing them into your water tank.

Hi both. Dried pine cones make good fire starters, also save your cardboard from toilet rolls, stuff with strips of news paper. I definately wouldn't fancy a pump out loo, just the thought of a huge tank of waste slushing around, usually housed under the bed area yuk. 🤢

With a compost loo the emptying of the wee holder is the only thing you need to do regularly (every couple of days) but if used properly the poo compartment should only need to be emptied once a month. Coir is the best option we found but you have to remember to 'crank the handle' to mix it after every poo - and never put toilet paper down! A bag of scented 'doggy poo bags' to hand sorts that problem. A useful thing we found that meant only lady wee went into the loo was my man bought a portable wee container (Danni as a nurse knows how they work!) which are readily available from chemists. Emptied and rinsed out daily they do ensure the loo wee container doesn't fill so quickly!! What a lovely post 😉🙄😅. Take care you lovely pair.

May I give you some kindling-making tips. Never, ever, hold the wood by hand when you make that initial hit with the axe to split it. Use another couple of sticks to hold it upright, or wear strong gloves. There are a couple of things that can happen; the axe bounces off then slices into your hand/finger, or it goes straight through the wood and slices into your hand or finger. Ask me how I know - I made that mistake after a couple of beers when camping in the woods once, glad I had a first aid kit. Keep safe!

@@ItsOhJoe the problem I have with it is that it doesn't matter how often you filter, it won't remove things dissolved into the water. So it could still have chemicals in it if there was some in there. With all the junk idiots throw into the canal, it wouldn't surprise me if there were contaminants in there though.
