Sad to read

“…A man (67) has been charged after a stream near Castlebay on the Isle of Barra was contaminated with human waste from a campervan. We received a report of the van’s toilet cassette being emptied around 10.30am on Sat 29 April. A report will be sent to the Procurator Fiscal…”

Probably a fairly common occurrence unfortunately. I have seen this personally a few times over the last few years, once where someone from a great white was dumping their cassette in the grass at the side of a beach car park. Another time in a lay-by just south of Crianlarich, where the guy was emptying it down a roadside drain. If I had not had cars behind me would have stopped and told them what I thought about their actions.

Sometimes wonder if this is people who have hired a motorhome for a couple of weeks but have not bothered booking campsites so have to wild camp, with the result that they end up with full cassettes after a few days.

An unfortunate occurance not just limited to the UK.
We recently bought a second cassette just incase we couldn't empty at an aire.
