I think I may have posted a similar thread to this before, but I can't really remember !
In the Co-op this morning, I helped a lady out, to her car, with a huge great 6-pack of 2 litre bottles of water. I mentioned that perhaps she should think of having these delivered. She thought it would be a good idea, as she bought 12 bottles a week !
I told her that I had my water delivered straight to the house, by a special pipe !
I know it may be different for some of you that live in London or other big cities, where the water doesn't taste as good as ours. But I can almost see the reservoir that this water comes from, from my bedroom window, so why on earth would anybody else in my Village buy it from the supermarket !
I'm with you, Mikey. I can't see the point of buying bottled water like that. I'll buy a small bottle if I'm out, but at home I'm perfectly happy with what comes out of the tap. Several people I know do buy the big bottles. I don't really know why, except one person said she doesn't like the taste of the tap water.
The water in my house tastes beyond disgusting, I have had to buy a filter to make it slightly more palatable, you are very fortunate for having nice drinking water.
Not necessarily big towns or cities, I live in a small village with the reservoir about 8 miles away, The water tastes foul, I buy bottled water all the time, but am quite happy to drink tap water in many places when on holiday, including city breaks.
Come on Jack...lighten up a little ! This is Chatterbank, not News !
How do you know, by the way, what kind of water she drinks, in Balmoral or anywhere else ? I can understand it in Buck House, or perhaps Windsor, but the Highlands ?
We have very good water here. My cousin only drinks a certain brand of bottled water and is adamant he can tell the difference. I think he talks out of his bottom.

You sly old dog mikey, what a pick up line. And then to tell her that you had a special pipe, how could she resist?
