My toilet IS functional - it even flushes! (I just have to haul the bottom half down the field to the dump point every now and again, which is not pleasant, but is over quite quickly). If the weather's fine I can have a sort of shower, as I have a "solar shower", ie a black plastic water bag with a sprinkler attached. You leave it out in the sun, and it heats up. You can then put the bag on the roof of your car or hang it in a tree, and hose yourself down. The alternative is to go in the sea, or to the nearest swimming pool - sunny days aren't always that frequent!
