Something disgusting just happened to me

So I work on a boat in Wellington, and at the moment it's blowing about 100kph, (last big gust to 116kph).

I felt a need to drain the old bladder, and chose the toilet that's usually safer in rough weather, on the upwind side of the boat.

I filled a fair bowl of urine, I reached for the flush, then BOOM we hit a big wave and it caused the air-pressure between the hulls of the catamaran to surge, which caused the toilet to explosively vent its holding tank upwards. To where I was. All over me. From head to toe.

But it could have been worse. I had just emptied the holding tank a few hours earlier, so it was pretty empty. Before that it had contained the excrement and piss of about 30 people, so I thank the Lords of Kobol for small mercies.

I have had a wash and put on new clothes, feeling better now.

So, how's your day going?

And I guess there'll be a few more showers and changes of clothes before we meet in Cairns (in less than 3 weeks). At that stage after eleven days in the outback you'll probably smell sweeter than I will.
