If we have a
camp fire we use it in the morning to help cool the ashes before departing - otherwise
Water a tree or a flower when it cools down :-) Cheers Tony

I was visiting a mate in
Sydney about 20 years ago and his 10 year old son made us a cuppa using the hot dog
water. We still have a laugh about it.

About 30 years ago I worked in a Bank in
Melbourne which contained a large metal urn in the staff room for tea/coffee. On of the tellers decided to chuck in a couple of corn cobs for his lunch and just left the
water in it after they were cooked. The manager, later requested 2 cups of coffee for some clients in his office and one of them actually threw up over his desk when he tried to drink it. Everyone knew who did it but to this day he still denies it. No! it wasn't me.

I use the hot
water for a first pass in washing up e.g. the fry pan. Still need to use clean
water in a second washing phase but it's good for cleaning off grease or soaking pans. Every bit helps when
water is scarce & precious.

I try not to boil food for that reason. Its a waste of
water.
Use bread instead of pasta.
