In a similar situation to your photo Jud, given permission to do so if on Site, you can also drain it on to the shrubbery, to give the plants some moisture.

Unfortunately not all waste water outlets will fit that type of pipe. Good on you for finding a solution for your problem.

Fortunately I don't mind sitting around people watching, one of the bonuses of being retired.

Anyways I carry a wheeled waste water container so can empty the waste even if I'm hundreds of yards away Razz

hi spacerunner we pulled on the same site on our way back from Spain after the winter you was going down to Deina. we don't mind sitting about people watch we have been retired since 2004. and we have a waste hog as well but the idea of the pipe is when you are about to leave site with tank a full or arrive at a site with queues.jud

I use 2 x concertina Vacuum hoses (5m each extended) that I can couple together with some connectors if I need to.

The connectors I bought from Dago above.

His company that I keep meaning to praise on company reports is



Akro Valve

If you need any valves or fittings for your pond hose grey waste?

I converted my outlets to 22mm overflow pipe and use 25mm black plastic hose to empty the tank when on serviced pitches. I have 2 pieces of hose and can get up to 15M if need be. On non serviced pitches I use the standard black 25l container.
