I have also been searching for the sort of bung over the past couple of years to do exactly the same job without any success but the rubber bungs in the link are far too big in diameter as I have a few of these already that I used to use to seal the opening on glass demijohns for winemaking. I have previously asked at caravan spares outlets and was told that the reason why they don't manufacture such bungs is because there is no overflow on either the sink or wash basin so it could lead to a flood if the bungs were left in and forgotten about. The waste outlets I believe have two different size tubes but mine happens to be the smaller size and I think that the larger diameter waste outlets tubes were intoduced around 2001. I will watch this thread with interest anyway as sometimes you get someone with a handy tip such as the plasticine but I thought that would somehow slide away with the weight of the water behind it.

 Join the two outlets together with a short piece of piping...

I used two short lengths of clear waste pipe and siliconed a short piece of broom handle in the end worked a treat

Came up with a simple idea this last weekend and worked a treat (I had the bits I needed in the front locker all along) I just took the two short lengths About 18" long of the waste pipe pushed each piece onto a waste waste outlet and took the straight waste pipe joiner and joined the two ends together forming a loop back on itself.  I then poured Puriclean solution down both sinks until just seeing the water come to the shower drain in the shower, knowing then that all pipework was being sterilised.

Worked Perfectly!
