He's probably from the same breed of people that think it's ok to drop rubbish, spit chewing gum onto pavements or leave cigarette butts on the roads. All dirty buggers and what gives the UK a bad name abroad. Shamefull!

What's wrong with that, we do all of that and more....looking forward to our holiday together in a few days!! :roflmto::roflmto::roflmto:

Mistakes can happen sometimes, especially if you dump at home then forget to go back and close the valve but if we dump on the road we make sure we do it over a stank. Most laybys have them.

Allen and Loren.
Sorry, forgot to mention that we are bringing our nice noisy, smelly generator, the screaming kids love to watch the TV that we let them use off a long extension lead somewhere away from our van and they tend to try and keep the three dogs away from us too. They make such a noise....
Won't be long now, really looking forward to meeting up with you both..:giggler::giggler:

We walk alongside the River Avon every day near Bath. There is a sewage treatment works about two fields away from the river, and every time there is a stink from the works (including s--t flies buzzing around,) invariably the day after there is scum on the river near a big outlet pipe which is embedded in the riverside bank and the all pervading stink that goes with it is clearly fecal in origin. This seems to be no coincidence - s--t farm overloading = dumping of s-t into the river. No one is doing anything about that it seems........ That has to be much worse than grey waste going down a drain, surely?

just think how bad it would be without the treatment plant 'in the way' :)

there might be a problem on the treatment plant though, seriously, it could be worth a call or email (y)

Wessex Water should be grateful, or at least interested

Have contacted them on a few occasions David. Cliff's worked on a few STWs and says they only smell when they are 'overloaded'. Ours had only started to smell when they laid pipes so that the works had to take the s--t from Bath as well, so probably overloaded most of the time. :(

I've said it before Highway disposal is the way. On many RV's there is a system called Highway disposal. Once on the move the Pee and Poo is mixed up with the grey waste water and ground up. Once ground it is injected into the exhaust manifold where it is vaporised and simply blows out of the exhaust!

I think you've over simplified it Eddie, it is far more sophisticated than that, but if the one I have fitted is the norm (see diagram) then a far smaller vessel is all that is left in the bottom for disposal 'darn the Carzi'.

I have always advocated, the leaving open of the grey waste tap, at all times.
If you don't store it, it don't smell.
One of the many routes to MH happiness.

Caravans don't have waste tanks or taps, sorted.
