Toilet Flushing post SHTF
This isn't a glamour and glitz subject, but it's worth hearing.
We're all storing water and the alike. But if you get 1 bucket, that will be good for a few poos.
Obviously we've all looked into digging holes and composting human waste. Well, you can still flush the toilet you know.
If you go to a stream or the alike and pull up a bucket of water, you can probably load up most into the cistern above your toilet, and thus are able to get a flush.
This is not recommended if you live low down a hill and close to a sewage works. Reason being, every toilet will have 1 more flush in it, once TSHTF. If the sewage works isn't working, you'll end up with a back log. Not good.
But if you live a little further up the chain, then you'll be good for a while with no backlog....these toilet phrases seem less than accidental innuendoes at best haha.
What does this mean? It basically means you can keep your stored water for longer, but that you can also enjoy the benefits of flushing water for a while longer.
One further note, you could always pee in the sink (this is mainly a guy thing and not recommended for women...unless utilising a She-Wee, but they're minging). Then use a little water to 'flush' that away and keep your sink area clean.
