As a member of the camping and caravaning club, we've been on a lot of hollidays and I've never seen one as cool!!!

We use ours on the boat, quite small, but there are very few showers by the riverside, unlike caravan sites.
We also have about 30 gallons of water on board, and a Paloma water heater.
Edit..
And it's easy to get rid of the waste water too....

We use our caravan shower as a store room. We keep the awning in when not in use

We usually use the site showers when we are away, but have used the caravan shower (Burstner S500TS) without problem if the site showers are not so good. It works fine. The caravan is nice and warm - shower blocks rarely are in winter.

We've no qualms at all about using the van shower. The first time we ever took the Burstner away, it was in February in North Wales. It snowed on and off for most of the week. Three of us showered in the caravan every morning with no problem at all. The biggest hassle was refilling the water and emptying the waste.

in answer to the last two posts:

That's exactly where it's going in the morning. It is odd in that it has large sections of clear polycarbonate in the walls so you can see right through it. I plan to leave the door unlocked and all the draws and cabinets open! so no point breaking in!

But how will those secretaries get and privacy? or any work done?



Sh*t i pressed the font colour button instead of the spell check
