Most interesting this!

Our old Dodge claims 30 Gallon Fresh and 20 each gray and black. obviously US gallons, but irespective I have to fill the fresh daily (well good top up at least) and empty the Gray at least daily! Evil or Very Mad
We don't/haven't used the shower whilst away, though when the heating at home packed up I did a couple of times and as the shower is c**p (to low pressure pump/wrong shower head) I used the pint pot to rince etc method, very low water usage though.
Must rain (ooops pun intended) the wife water usage in. Can't get her to fill the sink when washing up she always run the bl***y tap constant! Yes of course the wife does the washing up, I'm always to busy doing something else Wink Rolling Eyes

When we are in convenient range of fill/empty points (use a macerator and up to 20metres pipe) we need to fill / empty every 2 to 3 days. If too far from emptying point, use a fiamma 10gallon tank (already very heavy, any bigger would be a problem). we do all our showering and washing up on board. if we are careful, can just about manage twice per week for the water routine. i now carry 4 hoses for filling, as i have no other way to fill.

Most likely stating the obvious
but for washing pots we either use the site sinks or use a small plastic bowl inside the van sink to lesson water use
for the shower if i am at a site with limited or not easy to get to water supply then i have a spare shower head that has a valve on it so you can wet yourself soup up then rinse off using a fraction of water
