To flush or not to flush ?

Oh what a giggle you can get from widdle!
We're in the no waste camp and don't usually flush until there's a few wees under the belt so to speak. If we had visitors or went to visitors then it's totally different, but otherwise why waste.
Anyone ever been to a garden nursery or similar and used a green loo?
They have no water to flush with at all, and anything done is all way down below the seat, about 3' below! You can almost count whilst it falls, a bit like thunder after lightening!!! :rotfl:There's a notice asking you not to put paper down unless you have to.....so what to do instead? Drip-dry? Or bounce about on the seat for a while til you're all shook off....or should that be up!
Good widdling folks and keep a lid on it!:eek:

You're not suggesting recyling of that? :eek:
I was actually trying to point out the difference in saving the cost of a cistern full of water and the rip off price people will pay for a small bottle of "spring" water ............ BUT ................ now you mention it.....
there was a programme on TV a few weeks back about strange diets, and one couple used to start their day off by drinking their own...............................no, no, I won't go any further !!!0 -
