I'm on my lunch hour, too, right now and my sides are aching from reading this.

Your story reminds me of the first time we were camping with no hook ups and our gray water tank filled up on us. I KNOW, I KNOW, it is a horrible thing to do but I decided to “relieve” the gray water tank onto the grassy ground below our trailer. Just enough so we could tow away to the dump station without the shower overflowing. That’s all.
I pulled too hard on the gray water handle and it came off in my hand…with the valve wide open. I got a nice spray of “water” on my face as I struggled to put the cap back on the dump outlet.

Eeeeewww!

I bought a connector for my two hoses that combines a bayonet type of connection plus a wire that will rotate up the spiral of the sewer hose the prevent the hoses from separating. Yes, I had the hoses separate on me too, only it was the black tank I was draining...thank goodness it went on the ground and not on me! Sorry for the ground, but better it than me!
