Like the idea of the USB rechargeable shower pump & utility bag (16l & 35l) that holds water:

Have now tried the USB rechargeable shower https://colapz.co.uk/product/portable-shower-and-wash-kit/ & it's more powerful than we expected so a good enough flow to shower in a tent if necessary or al fresco! We don't have a dog to wash but think it might be handy for doing that too. Could try using with the trigger head to rinse off a bike or the motorhome. Take the heads off & it works as a pump to fill from the bag or a bucket into the water tank at a reasonable rate. Best thing is being rechargeable it can be taken anywhere then can recharge with 12V USB adapter even if not on hook up
Colapz brand (even after using the discount code) version of this type of pump is not the cheapest but it does come with a good selection of accessories like the suction holder, hanging hook, trigger head & shower head & the handy carry case:



For a more substantial suction shower head holder to use outside the motorhome - have read good reviews about this type of one & at only £2.58 delivered may be worth a try Amazon product ASIN B00MTHE3X2

We have the smaller 16L bag https://colapz.co.uk/product/collapsible-16-litre-utility-bag/ which holds water well & is very tough. If using campsite facilities it's ideal for the shower run as will stand upright with items in as well as hang on a hook & can be wiped clean.



The larger 35L one https://colapz.co.uk/product/collapsible-35-litre-utility-bag/ might make a good laundry bag. Either could be used for heavy shopping items like beer or wine then just add some water & frozen ice packs to make a cooler
Do like items that can do multiple things & don't take up much storage space - essential if downsizing to a PVC like us.

Something like these 20L Gelert https://www.sportsdirect.com/gelert...DuyZTHzJqr5P8OMH983TZqoe2HAuEfFxoCjwQQAvD_BwE £4.99 collect or Highlander Amazon product ASIN B0010A377C from £6.45 delivered solar bags (very basic built in showering nozzle) are handy for hot water to pour out & use with the shower pump or for washing up:

Just fill with water & leave in the sun

We used the 35L Utility Bag at Stratford River Festival Rally with the USB (Shower) pump & it worked well Liked that the bag can be wiped clean & stores away small & can be used for multiple purposes too. Thinking that with the Colapz 2 in 1 watering can/bucket too they will replace our current large rigid water container so ideal for us downsizing space wise

Also at Stratford we used two of the 16L Utility Bags for going to the showers & about the right size, good & strong handle hole for hanging on a hook & could also be used freestanding on a chair or the floor if needed. Again easy to wipe clean & being waterproof no more soggy bags if splashed by the shower spray.
Both bags fold down surprisingly small - took this picture when they arrived:

Be careful, they get hot when you use them in Portugal

Having used the Utility Bags think that a much bigger & taller version than the 35L would be better as a laundry bag as we do make a lot of washing! We currently use a tall semi rigid basket lined with a bin bag but something more flexible but still freestanding when filled would take up less space.

Having agreed a sale on our current motorhome we need to keep it pristine while we use it for our last couple of rallies so used this roll up silicone utility mat to protect the glass on top of the hob & sink which gets all sorts put on it (including keys ) as we come in the door:



It was also used to catch crumbs from the toaster when on EHU as easy to shake & wipe off. It has a raised lip around the edge which helps keep crumbs in place & when using the gas hob we used it as a messy mat on the table as it caught any spills & prevented any damage or tea bag stains on the table

The mat looks a bit grubby there as had had a lot of use that day at Upton Blues Festival but a quick wipe makes it look as good as new
Definitely an accessory that will get used a lot to protect surfaces in our next motorhome too - it's handy that it is heat resistant but quite thin so did put an extra silicone heat mat on top for hot pans.
Another suggested use is as a pet feeding mat (bowls not included) - it's grippy & easy to clean so might work well but check the size suits you (48 x 30 cm) if considering it for this use.

UPDATE: Although FFX have now completely sold out can still buy the 2 in 1 watering can for £12.99 delivered here
Some might prefer it in the dark blue option:

The darker colour might be good for leaving full of water in the sun to heat up for washing later?

 

[Wombles]

If prefer something other than bright or dark blue then still stock of the original 2 in 1 watering can in pink & black on Colapz Clearance section of their website £14.50 plus £2.95 delivery so total £17.45 - the discount code doesn't apply to Clearance items.
