A few days ago whilst working outside, Bassendean (
Perth), a Winnebago pulled up opposite by the park. A few minutes later a terrible odour wafted across the road. It was a septic smell, anyhow the Winny took off and I looked across and you could see this liquid around the storm water drain, I went across and it was sewage content. Jumped into the POOTROL and chased him down the road, flashed lights at him but he just kept on going. Got his rego number, it was QLD plates (I would dearly love to display rego number on the
forum), went to the Shire gave details and they came out confirmed raw sewage and they have passed his rego onto the police, the council said that they will go for a prosecution if they can catch up with him.
Soon it will be time to travel north for the winter sojourns, and it brings to mind the amount of rubbish being discarded along the remote roads and campsites, in a lot of cases it is 4Wdrivers as the areas are remote and not suitable for conventional vehicles. Most of us are enviromentally friendly and do the right thing we have our rubish bag that is attached to the spare wheel, (they are only $45 plus depending on how elaborate you want it), and what we take in we carry out, but it is that bleep minority "don't care" attitude that in some cases has lead to the banning of
bush camping, closure of some
camp sites and Station owners locking their gates. Nothing worse than pulling into a
bush campsite and there are those filthy disposable nappies etc.
There are a lot of travellers that visit the exploreoz site and we must thank David and his team for providing a fantastic
forum, so if any of the minotiy read this hopefully they change their habits for the good of the 4Wdriving community and the environment
There, I am off my soap box. Happy 4Wdriving and please take your rubbish out with you. that is for the bleep minority.

All this makes me a pretty bad person I suppose, actually a criminal!
I've taken my dog to a National park, not only did he have a crap their so did I, the Mrs. and my kids! Even worse I was drinking alcohol, you politically correct mob were thinking I was driving weren't you? No ...my son would have been! Dam good driver for 8 years old too I must add!
Jeeze I hope there were no spies in the bushes with cameras.
I think over a weekend we would usually leave about a woollies bags worth of turd in the bush but surely the glad bags worth of snot left by the political correct which we bring home and put in the bin must account for some sort of leniency when I come before the courts of the do gooders?
As for the wanker in the motor home....Hope they make an example of him!! Well done!
Cheers
