Grey water,was this YOU

whats the big fuss its washing water thats all . ok your an idiot if you dump in a car park or whilst driving , but there are plenty of places to relive your vans bladder of washing up water , we lived in ours for nigh on two years on a very limited strict budget and as such had no option of returning home to empty . laybies are one place you can empty ,either on the grass or into a drain by the road side , nothing wrong with that ,best still do it at night if you so see fit .wagon drivers use the laybies to pee in as do many others they also cook and wash there plates and they haven't sinks or waste tanks ,.now some have said there are bits of food waste in that water , answer me one question ,who is daft enough to put food waste down a campervans waste pipe , one easy way to bung the system up with waste food and any fats ,and frankly it will make the sink stink to high heaven you wipe or scrape your plate dont you first ,any food waste its perfectly acceptable to deposit in the grass near to the hedge or trees out of the way as the wild life will soon make short work of that .the main thing is just use your brains and common sense ,mind you many lack those two items realy .but i do agree its certainly a no no to empty the black waste only somewhere suitable like public loos ,so long as you dont use that blue stuff mind you who real does now ,plenty of other products cheaper and better .ps and then clean up after yourself .

Now that is the best analogy written on this topic
 
People keep referring to 'food waste' as if it's something terrible; I don't know what you can squeeze down your sink waste but the most that gets past ours are a few escapee grains of rice. Reading this thread you would think folks are throwing out cauliflower stalks, potato peelings or lamb bones; one poster is even frightened it is going to make him lose control of his motorbike!

I think you misquoted me.. not frightened at all ... but bleedin annoyed that people like you are emptying their waste on roundabouts :mad2:
quote: I find leaving the valve open and doing a few circuits of a roundabout usually clears them out of the tank.
I should not bite at your trolling really, but I think you really do empty your waste on roundabouts.
 
there is a simple answer to washing up knock on somebodys door and ask them to do it for you problem solved

It was not trolling, it was a joke. Have you no sense of humour?

If you look at the thread it is just one big troll:
Man goes for a walk and takes a photo of a puddle of water. He then feels so strongly about it (but not strongly enough to show the number plate) that he posts the photo on here. That is just trolling for the usual 'getting motorhomers a bad name' type of quote from the 'we never do anything wrong' brigade. For christ sake lighten up.

David, yes I have ridden since my teens, but I'm glad I don't now if dirty water is the problem some try to make it.

I think there is nothing wrong with my sense of humour, I can laugh at most things if they are a joke. The comments you make about motorcyclists and food waste do not give that indication, try placing a smiley at the end of your posts if they are a joke, as it is very difficult, sometimes to express an attitude in text without them. :)

I'm using the mobile app version as usual and I'm unable to post a smiley face, just tried in above post and it came out as the question mark
