If it's your wee, it's odd Clare, especially if it's asparagus tainted wibbling.

You can get collapsible camping bowls

In regards to the second toilet, it's been discussed and it's a no. There are of course costs that at the moment that are being taken into account by the GM members to keep the event free (free being the key). The additional toilet will incur considerably more cost to the organisers which at the moment no one feels the need to stump up for. AR has been tendered as a free event and the majority feeling is that we would like to uphold what has been tendered and keep the event free.

And just to add to that, the only time the portaloo will be the only facility is between the hours of 11pm and 6am. In the morning your best bet is to swan across to Loomies for a coffee, some brekkie and use of their facilities. In the afternoon evening, the pub has all you need.

There's a cracking double-apex right-hander on Buttercup lane* which should ensure you return to the campsite with a suitably empty bladder anyway.

*GM - Buttercup lane is the rebranding of the road formerly known as something less savory with the hairpins at the start and fag-break at the end.

I find when riding buttercup lane in reverse, so all the hairpins are on the down hill at the end, a recovery fag break in the Layby of Joy is desperately needed.

this has a very 'odd'/'wrong' sound to it!

And yet no-one was that bothered about doing tan hill in the rain in 2011, which is a slightly surfaced cart track with extra sheep... Kids these days, eh.

Buttercup lane is a fantastic bit of tarmac, on the AR itself it should not be a drama, however if used on the Sunday bimle to the coast it can be rather exciting!
