Bungling fuel thief siphons motorhome toilet into his mouth

So sorry - I hadn't seen it before!
 
doesn't stop it being funny and appeals to my sick sense of humour thinking of if it really happened
 
Seen it a few times too its an urban myth. On a slightly more serious note the fact that people believe most motorhomes have a tank of poo on board that they discharge through a hose probably contributes towards anti motorhome feelings when people wild camp (I know a few RVs have black tanks but very few out of all the MH in the UK)
 
With only an owners knowledge of UK & European motorhomes - how on earth could anyone, no matter how stupid, open a door, slide a cassette out, open the cap, then siphon the contents? Or, assuming an RV, removal of said cap close to ground level would present the contents for examination without any need for a syphon. I like joke stories based on even a limited knowledge of the subject but that isn't the case with this one.

We did have the Owner of a Motorhome. Who actually put the F-W hose In his Fuel tank, thinking he was Filling. 2003 @ Alcossebre, during a week long "session" on the Jack Daniels. Fortunately before he could start it, his partner took his keys and the site arranged for a local Garage to come and drain the fuel/water mix.

I think that this "story" originated in the USA?. Along with the one about the Winnebago owner who put his new R-V into "Cruise" and went to make coffee?. BTW that one is actually the subject of a "disclaimer" at the Winnebago Factory!

The story "originated" in the Suffolk Gazette I suspect. It is a spoof newspaper making up spoof stories for fun, hence their strap line "you couldn't make it up", in other words "but we can". Just have a look at the "related posts" at the bottom. Caught me first time too ......
 
I love these websites. Good work, always makes me laugh. :LOL:

There used to be a spoof Bristol Evening Post website set up by real journos in their spare time. One of the best stories was a U-boat surfacing in Bristol Harbour with a crew that didn't know WW2 had ended 50 years earlier. Probably using actual photos of a surrendered U-boat that was exhibited in the harbour after the war.
 
Some folk are really gullible! Members of my extended family went to Felixstowe last week to "see" the penguins, without appreciating that Suffolk Gazette reported it 2 years previously!

"Perhaps" even world leaders get sucked in with Fake News?

Trump uses our penguin beach story to claim global warming is a myth

Donald Trump has picked up on this newspaper's exclusive story about penguins arriving on a British beach for the first time - claiming it is "proof" that global warming is a myth.

I like the story about the motorhome owner who crashed her new motorhome after leaving it in cruise control to go and make a cup of tea! Driver was from ‘Cretingham’...I’ve met a few of her neighbours I think! ;)

Some brilliant headlines...
Seagull rips off mans testicle as he sunbathes naked!o_O
Police Apache helicopter blows up vicarage!
Morris dancers and blind footballers in mass brawl!
 
Talk about "taking the piss".
