... is the word (well phrase) at the Brown-Mouse house. We shower with a huge bucket and use the collected water for flushing (no we don't expect guests to do this). And we collect the cold water run off from the shower into a smaller bucket and use that for garden watering (I'm quite sure plants don't like the taste of soap any more than I do).
We also collect the cold water run off from the kitchen tap for the garden.
Mr Brown, being a bit of a time-and-motion man, has removed the bucket/bowl step from the kitchen collection, I caught him at it last night.Yep, straight into the watering can (the finger being in is deliberate, he's testing to see when the hot stuff comes out).
Speaking of bathrooms (sort of), Ever get the feeling you're being watched in the shower? It pays to look up!

Whoever invents something for the shower so you don't have to awkwardly straddle a bucket will make a fortune for those of us without diversionary plumbing.
As for spiders, we NEVER get them .. but a Huntsman in the bedroom in the morning, and his bro' in the lounge later on the same night.
Erk !
Spiders are simply NOT allowed in the bedroom, it's a house rule.
One day, when we are rich we will have diversionary plumbing. For now we have a trug (huge bucket) that we can stand in, very softening for the feets.
