Re: Bottled water
Me i drink bottled water when im out and about and im thirsty but otherwise what comes out of the tap does me. Mind you i did buy some flavoured water and thats in the fridge for me to take to work with me - dont like paying a £1 for a bottle when i can get it down town 4 for a £1. Thats what i dont like - paying the difference in a vending machine and the shops. Vending machine at work £1 a bottle - poweraid, oasis, coke, buxton water. Go down accy and the prices range from 40p a bottle to 90p a bottle - might as well buy in bulk and take it with me.

Re: Bottled water
I have no idea how this phenomenon (bottled water) began but its an epidemic in the workplace , if a meeting is called at work 1/2 of the attendees arrive clutching water bottles like a 15 month old toddler with his/her tittie bottle , fortunatly I am old and devious enough that the only thing I take into meetings is an ashtray which I play with as a way of keeping the chat to a minimum and the meetings short .
yep , I'm an evil owd ****** :D :D :D |
Re: Bottled water
In some countries although you can drink the local water (ie it won't poison you) it can be so unpalatable if it come from desalination plants and not at all thirst quenching because it isn't totally desalinated. I prefer fizzy bottled water in cordial or on its own because it seems more thirst quenching with the bubbles.

Re: Bottled water
my dad ALWAYS has a bottle of water in his fridge, when its gone he re-fills it from the tap and puts it in the freezer overnight, so always has cold water when he fancies a drink, he cant stand pop so drinks that instead

Re: Bottled water
I read somewhere (too lazy to remember where) that one US company producing bottled water was ordered to put "PWS" on the bottles ... PWS stands for public water source ... in other words, they were getting the stuff out of the tap and filtering it!!!!
Remember what W. C. Fields said: "I don't drink water; fish f**k in it." |
Re: Bottled water
just watched a programme about it on BBC1, the ONE show, they were giving a drink of bottled n tap to the public without telling em, ALL chose Tap Water as the best, Edwina Curry n some geezer was on and they were saying much of the bottled water is very high in " Sodium" which is great for folks that dont like much salt init? i only buy it occasionally in spain, cos its so warm, have never bought it here, so for all those that buy it here- carry on suckers.:D

Re: Bottled water
Canadians buy millions of bottles of the stuff ... lots of it imported. We live in a country which has most of the world's fresh water and we buy bottles of the stuff????? There are lakes in the undeveloped parts of our country (which is most of it ) which one can drink out of. Whole bloody lakes full of the best water in the world.
