They're moist, good smelling and most important, made of strong cloth like material and get the job done very well. A pack is about 5" x 3" by about 1.5" thick and easy to carry in a purse or pants pocket. About 12 in a pack. Name brands are numerous but what you'll probably find in Tesco are Mamy Poko and Johnson & Johnson. Happy wiping! :thumb: :shock: Pete :cheers:

Hmmm planning a head that would be a first for me... :mrgreen:

Although not a prolific poster... I have been round for a while!

Someone on here once gave the definitive advice on how to use these things, including how far to slide down ones shorts! I found it really useful. perhaps a search could find it?

Alternatively, you could always opt for adult diapers. :neener:



Just use squat toilets as often as you can......you'll soon get the hang of them. :thumb:

I read recently on another forum where some kindred spirit lameted about wasting two perfectly good socks to accomplish the post-dump cleaning ritual. How resourceful is that? :idea:

But I don't wear socks here... in fact I only wear a T-shirt, shorts, and flip-flops so I guess in a pinch (no pun intended) I'd have to leave the toilet shirtless. :shock:

Don't mind them personally and prefer the water method.

Best combo is Farang toilet and bum gun.

I coined a new term at the Elephant Polo.....

They had a big row of portable-loos for use, but they were all squat versions--no seats around.

I have done many road miles up and down from Issan to Hua Hin and down south too.
I always carry a can of Off and my lighter when going into a cubical i use it as a flame thrower to kill the mosie's first.

Its hard enough to do the squating bit without the threat of getting your tackle bitten by damn mosie's.
I once had to use a loo in a poorly lit gas stationed in the arse end of nowhere :D i got down to do my business and felt something brush along my foot, so i jumped up in panic realized it was a snake altho, i could have made my exit i gave the snake the full force of my flame thrower before falling out of the cubical with my shorts and pants around my ankles screaming like a little girl.

My mini van driver thought this was very funny and decided to go over to have a look at this now deceased beast, he came back with it in his hand and promptly put it into his jacket pocket.

God knows what he was going to do with it eat it or just have a laugh with his friends.
Now on long road trips i am very care full what i eat the day before it's strickly number 1 for me.
