Default Waste water in Campervan field
On the official website it states that there are waste water tanks in the campervan fields. Does this apply to chemical waste water from porta potties etc? Being a campervan field i would have thought so, but started questioning it then cause of enviromental issue!

Yup, they do vary in size and design depending which field you're in, from quite low, but large green metal tanks with a hatch, to the more common 1mx1mx1m cube pallet type bulk liquid thingy - these can be a pain if you're emptying a large or full container and are a bit short, as they can be quite a stretch to the centre hole.

Also, if using these to empty waste water and chemical loos you will discover how many absolute muppets there are in the campervan fields. By Monday they will be half filled with bags of rubbish as plenty of idiots seem to miss the waste water signs on them and seem to think they are some type of rubbish skip!
