    So, in the non-washing corner, we have two northerners and a
    beardy-weirdy hippie.

    No surprises so far.

    Pah. I am to nasty campsite toilets as Biggles is to Sopwith Camels and
    helicopters.

    Wading through the flooded ones at Magny Cours was an experience I
    don't wish to repeat. The odd bit was, blokes were still queuing to
    piss into urinals that were already overflowing.

    every other day for me. I was told by a skin specialist
    showering/bathing daily isn't good for your skin.

    removes too much natural oils or something. prolly the folks who have
    to shower daily have upped the oil creation and that's why they need
    to shower that often.

    This is the reason I'm at least taking a pack of baby wipes.

    Or me.

    OBTopTip: When heading for breakfast, make sure you're off on a flyer
    to get to the thunderbox before TOG.

    One day 'madam' is going to wise up, and condemn/mark that WC out of
    bounds for the entire weekend.

    I see what you did there. An insult caged within an insult. Very
    clever.

    You're so sharp you'll cut yourself one of these days.

    As you know, we may only have a smallish 3-bedroom house, but it has
    three toilets - which means we can leave one fallow for a few days
    after we've been out for an Indian.

    I think you may be right. Whether it's a simple cause and effect I'm
    not so sure - it could also be diet-related, causing higher oil
    production...

    To wave the accusing finger?
    You reckon? I think the amount of custom she gets that weekend
    probably keeps her going the rest of the year.

    I shower at least once a day - sometimes twice [1]. And I could
    qualify for both of the above.

    [1] either before or after getting dirty.

    pah. A mere trifle. I've shat in ones that had crap piled above the
    level of the seat. I've pissed in ones that were a foot deep in thick
    sticky "mud" despite it not having rained for several days. I've seen
    attack ships on fi... No, wrong script.

    Same with washing hair, apparently.
    It gets greasy because the scalp over-compensates for the natural oils
    being washed out.

    I remember seeing a TV program about a girl with really long hair who
    hadn't washed it (in the normal sense - shampoo etc) for years. When
    she stopped washing it, it initially went very greasy and then sorted
    itself out.

  17. Oi! My hair is far too short to be a hippie.

  18. Indeed it isn't. The skin has perfectly good natural oils to keep
    itself supple.
    Like the ladies/gents who slather on moisteriser continually while
    complaining of dry skin.. well of course it's dry! You put that much
    artificial skin oil on the skin is going to stop producing its own..
