@Bruno Zeigerts: Bung is no hippie.For we know, from the late President Reagan, that“a hippie is someone who looks like Tarzan, walks like Jane and smells like Cheetah.”
Keep a bucket handy for running the water into while waiting for the hot water (use a rooftop solar water heater, of course). Between daily showers and dishwashing, this usually provides enough water to use on my patio flowerpots. Also, having served in the US Navy, I learned to take “military” showers – get wet, turn off the water. Scrub down, shampoo hair, turn on water and rinse. Two minutes max. Lots of ways to conserve and re-use water. My washing machine drains into my garden, and I use a low-sudsing biodegradable laundry detergent. The passion fruit vine planted at the drain outlet loves it.

Saves water, too.

I tried to save water once by showering with a friend. But her husband wasn’t too thrilled with the idea.

Wouldn’t matter if Bung showered anyway since the body-stink could never get past the alcohol-stink.
