Aha Jan, we both smelt the same!
Water is always a problem especially deep in the bush away from public camping sites.
The more water you carry the heavier your vehicle & the more problems in deep sand.
So it is always a balancing act.
We ration ourselves to a strip wash out of a small bowl every day.
Ah but the luxury of talcum powder!
We take lightweight old clothes, a couple of tee's, couple of shirts, one pair of shorts, & a pair of trousers, plus a thick pollythene bag for worn items!
The only thing we don't scimp on is under wear.... Knickers to be precise!
If we get the chance we dhobi out the dirty bag & the washed clothes dry quick in the sun.
Our self drive through Tanzania was a water restricted trip but..... we found on the picnic sites where lodge vehicles allowed their clients to stretch their legs & stop for a break & drinks.
The toilets, as well as European toilets, had squat toilets & in the squat toilets there were shattafs! (Washing sprays)
So at sundown when the lodge vehicles were heading back to the luxury of their hot showers, clean sheets & excellent food & we were the only people for miles around Lady Kipper & I found that by crouching down on our haunches we could have a perfectly excellent cold shower with a shattaf!... Pure luxury!.... Honest!
