TIP: The online
Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.

Don't want to sound like a perv...but this popped up in google adsense and i couldnt help but click. Not being a lady myself...Im not sure if it should be taken seriously or not. Is this something the lady folk would employ?

What a hoot!

There were times when I dreamed of a product like this, but when it comes down to it I can't see that it would actually help much. You can't wear it all the time (it's painful to even contemplate

) so by the time you've dropped your daks to put it on you might as well squat. I reckon you guys still have one over on us.
And I bet you can't write your name in the snow with it!

from the description on site you can use it without dropping daks...just undo fly and aim your bajingo into it

They work, but they do take a little practice.....

They were reviewed 2-3 years ago in FlyLife, a fly fishing magazine:

Well there you go! Ignorance on my part it is!
Glad to know that the information is out there after all.

I did see Jeremy Clarkson "demonstrate" a "she-wee" on Top Gear once!

My dialup speed connection managed to load the Flylife page, unlike the product home page, so thank you BarryJ. I'm still not sure about using it

Think it would take some practice.

The trick is to practice in the shower....
(Can I hear you all say "eeewwwwwwww"???)
Clothed is a different matter. I wear a boilersuit a lot of the time when I'm working at home and it would be easier using the doovalackie than having to de-gear all the time... We have an outdoor loo too - so it's a bit chilly taking off all the clothing..
Would be a bit embarrassing having an accident though, esp. being that I live in a share house and privacy is pretty much non-existent. It's what's kept me from taking that "next step"...
I suppose we'd all get a good laugh out of it though.

but oh, the
indignity...
I think at the end of the day, you would just have to hope that your companions were possessed of a good sense of humour.

I think that's one of the products mentioned in the women-only chapter of the book under discussion elsewhere. Get enough tubing and you don't need to go outside the tent in bad weather unless it's hole-digging time.

Just you make sure you don't use "male" tubing - likely to shrink a bit in cold weather
So I've heard...

Raise your hand, thumb and index finger positioned as though gripping something approx 2mm wide.
This is the diver's signal for 'This water is very very cold'.

Huh! And I always thought 'he' was a bloke. Maybe they need a gender profile field on Top Gear.

Ya know what they say about blokes that drive fast expensive cars... Maybe he NEEDS one

I believe the armed forces have used this sort of thing for decades...called FUDs (female urinary devices).
As for getting out of cold gear to pee...womens sailing wet weather gear comes with special double-zip-down sides, so the whole bag of the pants can be zipped down without removing the jacket, bib etc. (slightly reminiscent of those long johns that you see it old cartoons).

Can I wear them in my shed??
(I wouldn't want people laughing and pointing...)
