I'm going to get out of this Porta-poti conversation.
If you got three kids and a wife you need a poti ,,, go for it.
I mostly travel and camp alone, mostly meeting other people at specified
camp sites for VW events etc so I only have to be concerned about my own
kidneys.
I ride a 24" bike to restrooms at camp grounds and use a 5 five gallon
bucket with a garbage bag the very few times I've ben insecure about the
1/4 mile bike ride to the campground restrooms.
I've had a good time ribbing William and he's taken it well and I know
somebody is out there planning ways to get me in the barrel next so I
better lay low for a day or so.
