Washing
: Use two buckets, keeping one for washing food and face, the other for washing the rest of the body and dirty clothes. Pour dirty water into an area with thirsty non-edible plants. Use biodegradable soaps.

Facilities
Heating
: Use as little 'active' heating as possible, by insulating, facing glass windows towards the sun, and choosing a wind-protected warm site. Then use warm clothes. As last resort, try a small methylated-spirits or kerosene burner to provide active heating.
