toilet cassette

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?

It did!! Probably no-one else would notice but I found it hilarious.

@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.

I somehow doubt many people would have noticed it but perhaps they have. lol

So ironic where the dumping station is in relation to a fast food sign. I guess that proves the old saying, you are what you eat.

@JudyEv Maybe they have but they just don't give a crap. Sorry, I could not resist.

What a terrible choice to place their big sign.

@JudyEv The sign does not seem to be "too old" as it did not fade, I suppose the sign went after the "dump-point".

@LadyDuck Quite possibly.

Thanks. I couldn't stop laughing. I should drop the store a note in case they haven't noticed the humour yet.

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

We were focussed on finding one or we probably wouldn't have picked up the humour.

Good idea. Just ignore it all completely.

You'll be much happier.

@judyev A telling comment on fast food! On the plane today, about to land, it was announced that cabin crew would come through the aircraft with a bag to collect any personal waste we wanted to be rid of. Yes, I was the one who giggled.

Anna pointed out that the sign looks quite new so perhaps that went in later.
