I think some may produce considerably more than that.
Why on earth would anybody pay £70k for a motorhome and worry so much about emptying the cassette when the answer is so simple, staring him in the face and been pointed out by numerous posts.
Baffling.
Can't wait for next week's offering when he's done the boat show.
Maybe he'll put a deposit on a Sunseeker then tell us he bought a dingy instead because he's not really going to use it anyway ?????

Most of the threads on this forum go off track, it’s just the way it is, we don’t want it to change, that’s why it’s Motorhomefun not Motorhomexxxxx.

I am a bit lost Motorhomefun is Motorhomefun what has the book xxxxx to do with the thread, my interpretation of the book only relates to us being absolute beginners, as below ,
unless of course i have completely lost it :reel:

xxxxx proposes a radical, new space for artistic exploration, with essential contributions from a diverse range of artists, theorists, and scientists. Combining intense background material, code listings, screenshots, new translation, [the] xxxxx [reader] functions as both guide and manifesto for a thought movement which is radically opposed to entropic contemporary economies. xxxxx traces a clear line across eccentric and wide ranging texts under the rubric of life coding which can well be contrasted with the death drive of cynical economy with roots in rationalism and enlightenment thought. Such philosophy, world as machine, informs its own deadly flipside embedded within language and technology. xxxxx totally unpicks this hiroshimic engraving, offering an dandyish alternative by way of deep examination of software and substance. Life coding is primarily active, subsuming deprecated psychogeography in favour of acute wonderland technology, wary of any assumed transparency. Texts such as Endonomadology, a text from celebrated biochemist and chaos theory pioneer Otto E. Roessler, who features heavily throughout this intense volume, make plain the sadistic nature and active legacy of rationalist thought. At the same time, through the science of endophysics, a physics from the inside elaborated here, a delicate theory of the world as interface is proposed. xxxxx is very much concerned with the joyful elaboration of a new real; software-led propositions which are active and constructive in eviscerating contemporary economic culture. xxxxx embeds Perl Routines to Manipulate London, by way of software artist and Mongrel Graham Harwood, a Universal Dovetailer in the Lisp language from AI researcher Bruno Marchal rewriting the universe as code, and self explanatory Pornographic Coding from plagiarist and author Stewart Home and code art guru Florian Cramer. Software is treated as magical, electromystical, contrasting with the tedious GUI desktop applications and user-led drudgery expressed within a vast ghost-authored literature which merely serves to rehearse again and again the demands of industry and economy. Key texts, which well explain the magic and sheer art of programming for the absolute beginner are published here. Software subjugation is made plain within the very title of media theorist Friedrich Kittler's essay Protected Mode, published in this volume. Media, technology and destruction are further elaborated across this work in texts such as War.pl, Media and Drugs in Pynchon's Second World War, again from Kittler, and Simon Ford's elegant take on J.G Ballard's crashed cars exhibition of 1970, A Psychopathic Hymn. Software and its expansion stand in obvious relation to language. Attacking transparency means examining the prison cell or virus of language; life coding as William Burrough's cutup. And perhaps the most substantial and thorough-going examination is put forward by daring Vienna actionist Oswald Wiener in his Notes on the Concept of the Bio-adapter which has been thankfully unearthed here. Equally, Olga Goriunova's extensive examination of a new Russian literary trend, the online male literature of udaff.com provides both a reexamination of culture and language, and an example of the diversity of xxxxx; a diversity well reflected in background texts ranging across subjects such as Leibniz' monadology, the your-crash of supreme flaneur Thomas de Quincey and several rewritings of the forensic model of Jack the Ripper thanks to Stewart Home and Martin Howse. xxxxx liberates software from the machinic, and questions the transparency of language, proposing a new world view, a sheer electromysticism which is well explained with reference to the works of Thomas Pynchon in Friedrich Kittler's essay, translated for the first time into English, which closes xxxxx. Further contributors include Hal Abelson, Leif Elggren, Jonathan Kemp, Aymeric Mansoux, and socialfiction.org.

Since 2014 -- cycle-camper before that
I can't believe this thread is still running, I'm going to hit ignore........
Well, I would ...... and still might ..... but there is something strangely drawing me in to look again at the ridiculousness of it.

Yes, you know you should put it aside.... but, then again there is something strangely alluring.

Personally, I want the thread to move into the realm of incinerating toilets, as that sounds particularly edgy and exciting -- I need pyrotechnics in my khazi.

Why don’t you just carry a spare cassette ? You’ll find a site/Aire/disposal point by the time 2 are full. Easier than filling firms, carrying a spade, checking where you dig your hole etc..
You cannot tell everyone how wild campers can go more than 3 days without emptying toilet waste.
I have carried a spare cassette for years now the cat's out of the bag every one will do the same and not move on.(n)

Bought a spare a couple of weeks ago. Hopefully won’t need to use it but I’d rather have the back up

What the hell! I leave you all with ONE job and that is to clearly and concisely list any questions I can put to the waste department and THIS is what I return to, complete and utter diatribe :rolleyes: Luckily we have another day so can you please focus and think of some serious questions, in defence of one sensible poster who brought up a good point about land owners permission, that is now on the list. With payload limitations I don’t really want a summons for carrying too much sh!t on board so an extra cassette is not for me ?

I am out on my boat today but will be checking in occasionally so please take note and keep on track.

Thanks,

Have you thought about towing an IBC intermodal bulk container ? They are perfect for 1m3 of toilet contents.

You’ve travelled for 9 years being grossly overweight so a spare cassette shouldn't be a concern! :D

Just a thought. I know you wanted a rear lounge and it was a dealbreaker for you with the Morelo. Why not take a look at a rear lounge Concorde. I’ve mentioned our friends having on in a thread. It has an enormous black tank... it will be just right for your requirements.

Thought for the day , "Gullibility is a failure of social intelligence in which a person is easily tricked or manipulated into an ill-advised course of action. It is closely related to credulity, which is the tendency to believe unlikely propositions that are unsupported by evidence". I dont know why but it just popped into my head , when emptying a cassette :)

Thanks, I did look at the Concorde vans, I am limited to 8mtrs for parking, but new for me would be out of the question anyway, too expensive for what we would use it for plus could not get 6 beds, just wanted a cheapie for the summer, but when I say cheap I don’t men thrown together with sloppy workmanship ?. Thanks for thinking of me, it’s appreciated, one day when my wife retires and we get rid of some cars we will have more room and then maybe look at something special to see us out (y) Problem then is all the medicals, life seems arse about face, when young and fit your too busy earning a living and survive to afford things, when you get old and rich you are too old to manage what you could have when you were younger, getting the balance is the key I guess, don’t put things off too long you never know what will happen(y)

Yes, agreed... balance is the key.

We’ve seen too many friends and family die before they were able to enjoy their retirement. We seize the moment while we can. We intend to travel as far and wide as we wish before the time comes when we don’t want to do it any more.

We wouldn’t want to go full time but we spend around 6 months in the year away travelling.

Great view of life (y) My only issue is my wife is a lot younger than me, I have lovely children and grandchildren but limited to wife’s holidays and school holidays, yes I get frustrated, yes I get a bit bored but the joy I get from my family puts all that into insignificance. Retirement is not all that people think, you need a plan, one day you could be the biggest boss ever sitting in your hand made suit, the next day at home retired, no suit required ever again except for funerals, someone else at your desk and life goes on, don’t EVER think you are irreplaceable because I you do you are a fool. Live life and enjoy it but remember those less fortunate, could be ill in hospital or going through terrible things, sometimes it’s good to take as step back and realise how fortunate you are, ALL on here are fortunate, most have a motorhome, that is something so many people dream of, doesn’t matter how expensive it is, some of these people can’t drive, don’t have a computer or know how to work one, its easily to get blaze, me moaning about mastic, some people can’t even afford the tube of mastic never mind the van, so I am just as guilty!

The only thing I can disagree with is that retirement meant the beginning of a new and greatly improved life for me.

You must have done things correctly so well done, some people have their head in the sand and think they are so important and irreplaceable or don’t prepare, to go from 5/6 days a week solid work to zero for ever is a HUGE change, I personally think it should be done gradually maybe down to a 3 day week, not off a cliff.

Yes, exactly you need to retire to something not from it.

My husband retired about 18 months ago and it’s been wonderful. We used to travel before he retired and he worked remotely whilst we were away but it was still a tie.

We know that we’re fortunate to be able to travel as we’re both healthy. While our health remains good we’re making the most of life! :giggle:

I loved my job and intended to work longer than I did but the job became embroiled in so many rules and regulations that I felt I was not achieving anything. A phased retirement was not an option for my role and when the day came to pack in I was so relived and felt as if I had started a new life. The only problem I have with retirement is that it seems as if someone has let the handbrake off with regards to time and I don't know where it goes.

Exactly, some days I wonder how I had time to go to work, but then it was up at 5.30 for a train into London or off to an airport, then home 8.30 pm or in a hotel somewhere in the world but this still meant away from family and friends. Now I potter about but as you say time flies, the grandkids are growing at a pace with more arriving, means bigger van when I should be downsizing, maybe selfishness is the way to go and just take off in something smaller, but you know what, my life is my family, I just hope I have a few years with my wife after she retires to be together before I die, she is still in the world I was in, it pays well but money isn’t everything, you can’t take it with you!

596 you are going to have to be careful as you are starting to talk a lot of sense;)

Martin
The problem with sense is you only see it if you recognise it, some people with limited exposure to things just don’t get it, you have to be diplomatic with these types without them feeling stupid when it suddenly dawns on them. I have been learning quite a bit on this forum, if people did less slagging off and bitching then more could be done and learnt, learning comes in many formats and sometimes people don’t realise they have actually learnt something e.g. a D3 waste permit and permission to bury, you will see some farmers and others got it, but some never exposed to these rules just didn’t and still don’t.

There are quite a few Woodland Area for sale signs around. Just a thought, could you buy one and use it just for burying your poo?
