Bottled Water

[Huxleys Babkins]

Been buying bottles of water the past few weeks as I've no drinking water at home thanks to our ongoing renovations. Enjoying seeing the disparity between something like Evian for a quid fifty a bottle and Asda Smartprice for 17p. Imagine being so much of a poseur that you're paying over a quid's premium for a pretty label on something as basic as water.

The best water I ever had was on a holiday in Lynton in Devon. So soft, with a slightly sweet taste. Coming from Bournemouth, with a water hardness close to concrete, it was heaven. Loved it to the point that we were eschewing booze and soft drinks when we were out just to get some more of that sweet, sweet tap water.

I always wondered why bottled water has a chemical taste to me and assumed it was the plastic, but this thread has prompted me to google it and apparently most bottled water is soft. I've lived in Bedfordshire all my life, drinking water so hard it makes Chuck Norris look like Woody Allen, so presumably that's it.

Yeah I'm in Bedfordshire too.

The water hardness scale goes up to 30 and ours measures about 27.

We have a water softener here and it works wonders but you should still only drink from the mains water.

UK water, hard or soft is perfectly fine to drink and its ridiculous to choose to drink bottled water here (unless there are supply issues obvs).

Napalm's too good for him. Pop him on a ducking stool and Badoit him to fuck. Or recreate the No Surprises video in Smart Water, but as well as no alarms or no surprises there's also no drain. Violence.

Bit harsh.
