My, ‘not so’ secret Toilet tips in the Cold
- Boys – Pee with the wind at your back!
- Girls – Pee facing the wind!
- All poo facing the wind!
- If using a bucket, when you’ve finished, give it a couple of firm taps with your foot to let the poo come to rest; this will prevent a frozen stalagmite of poo from forming.
