Too close for comfort

We have been away for two nights. We free-camped in our motor-home and enjoyed our time away. My BIL did the few chores at our house-sit which is his daughter’s place.
Our motor-home has a toilet and on the way home, we needed to empty the cassette that holds the waste. They are called a ‘dump point’ here and when we found this one in a town, it is placed immediately under a sign for a KFC outlet which is just 600 metres up the road. The dump point is that blue box affair under the sign.
As you can see, the sign says ‘So close you can taste it’ which isn’t really what I wanted to hear. I would never have noticed if we hadn’t been looking for a dump point.

Did it make you wonder exactly what they were referring to?

@JudyEv It does seem funny to me, too. You'd think whoever located the dump there would have paid attention to the sign above it.

@DaddyEvil It's strange what escapes people's notice at times.

@JudyEv Someone surely. I remember when a certain someone and myself had a motorhome and here they call the blackwater station.

Oh, my. I think someone needed to put more thought into putting these two things together!

That's funny, I wouldn't have noticed it being a dump spot if you hadn't pointed it out.

As you said, it would be interesting to know which was there first.

Good idea. Just ignore it all completely. 
You'll be much happier.
