Female Urinals

Exactly, this device appears to be the perfect answer to outdoor pursuits.

Once, when I was young, I was driving my parents through the Aberdare Mountains in Kenya. There were no comfort stations in that wild area and the bushes might harbour snakes or scorpions. There was nothing for it but to squat behind the car while my parents averted their eyes. The VW Beetle had very neat twin tail pipes and unfortunately I got too close to one of these. It was red hot. I got branded on my behind with a nice little circle. My dad nearly died laughing!
Still don't fancy a sheewee in spite of my adventures with ticks and Beetles.

lol LOL.....@ elegran..and others.....ohh was feeling a little low until I read this thread lol LOL......Ohhhh lol...made me chuckle cheers

Has anyone found mine? Very sad as I lost it when we moved house, maybe it'll turn up at a carboot sale?

I've just bought a Shewee today - now got to experiment....

You're a brave wumman Yogagran - let us know how you diddle

Shouldn`t that be widdle?

Yes Numberplease - I was just be prissy!

oops - being

Yoga......um hows it ....er...............um..........going?

Down 'er leg!!

I bet.

Don't I know it, both legs with me.

The instructions said to practice in the shower, but being me - I couldn't wait (so to speak) and tried in the loo, what a strange experience! I now know how men feel when they pee! Admittedly I had to change my pants for dry ones but I shall persevere and things are bound to improve. Which reminds me - I must ring my DD who is potty training her daughter at the moment.
I can see the advantages when faced with nasty dirty toilets and when you're out in the woods but I think I'll stick to what I know best thank you!

I think its when the panic sets in that things go wrong.

Success! It's easy Only problem is that ladies trousers and jeans don't have a zip as low and long as mens trousers so you still have to drop them past your bum, but it'll solve the problem of smelly, dirty loos

Well done yogagran! Perseverance usually pays off, practise makes perfect etc etc!!

These gadgets are WONDERFUL! Useful in so many situations - I have had them for years, keep one in the car, never go travelling abroad without one and have given them to many of my friends and recommended them to many more. Use them when peeing in the countryside, on the edge of roads, in dirty public loos, foot-pad loos still found on the continent, and terrifying foreign loos (star occasion was a long-drop loo in China which was just a plank with holes at intervals.) Invaluable for those who (like me) have back problems - no squatting and then being unable to get up again!

Practice in the shower until you get the hang of it. Hurrah for the She-Wee!

I have got one corner of my garden which I am pretty sure is not overlooked at all....

Do like I do, when in a hurry, have a wee behind the wheely bin.

Urine is very good for compost.

You are absolutely right Baggy. My DH pees in the compost bin from time to time. Just hope he checks first that there are no neighbours around!

I've just found Gransnet thanks to the Times article! Have really chuckled at this chat! I've been wondering about whether to get one of these devices as I am going to Beijing by train from the UK soon, and I understand that the toilets are locked at border crossings......maybe for a couple of hours ! Think I'll need to take a suitable container as well

MumMum - the TravelJohn has an integrated container, with very absorbent crystals in it. I would buy both TJ and shewee, belt and braces, shewee for when you can aim it somewhere, TJ when you can't.

Yes Baggy! My DH pees in the compost bin.

I don't think its because he's too lazy to take his shoes off and go upstairs.
