mousey 18-Jan-2006 1:34:06 AM	eh hexy, do you have any suggestions for a young lad designing his erection-friendly bigwall pee bottle? i always pee as soon as i wake up, and being rather a 'lively' chap...as soon as i wake up is not the most ergonomically correct time to need to pee. i c#nt exactly hold the bottle upside down to catch the urine, oh dr hexy what can i do??

Either learn to handstand in etriers, or carry a suitable photograph. Then again, you could just look across the vertical campsite!
DaCrux 18-Jan-2006 10:53:51 AM	put a one-way valve in your bottle.... or get a cold spoon >:-D or get one of these: http://www.biziworks.com.au/biziworks/BiziGen?ownerID=MEDI8888&docID=6072
