In my house if you leave a glass of water on the side a cat will jump up and start drinking it/playing with it. I use a Brita filter instead.

- Jaruzel 10y agoBrita filter for the win. We do too, and then we boil it, then use it for tea/coffee and cooking. For cold drinks; bottled water. We go through a ton of it. The joys of living in London (UK) and it's crappy water :(
- joncrocks 10y agoIt's hard water, yes, but otherwise OK. Having lived in London most of my life, and spent a few years in the US (MI), I can tell you we've got it good. I used to use bottled water in the US as I didn't enjoy drinking chlorine flavour/smelling water...
- noir_lord 10y agoI'm up in Yorkshire, our water is so hard it beats up the kettle, pipes, taps and washing machines on the way through.
- senorjazz 10y agoI used to live in Leeds and used the water for a few gardening projects were the PH of the water was very important so was also testing it, it was always perfect, never had to modify. Now, when I lived in Hull, terrible water
- omegaham 10y agoWater softeners are pretty cheap these days, although the water still tastes funny afterward.
- logfromblammo 10y agoYM2: Our water is so hard, it beats up little old ladies for their grocery money. YM3: Our water is so hard, it beats up the cops that come 'round to take the report from the little old lady. YM4: Our water is so hard, I once got arrested for assault with a deadly weapon, by a bunch of beaten-up cops, for holdin' a hose in me own garden. YM1: I used to carry a chisel round in my pocket, in case I got thirsty. YM2: I once forgot my chisel, had a drink anyway, and broke all my teeth off. YM3: We only 'ad one chisel for all of us, and we had to trade it off between the kitchen faucet, and breaking up the toilet water into pieces small enough to flush. YM4: We had to rent our chisel, and on days when we couldn't afford it, we had to follow cops around and drink their broken-off teeth when they got beaten up. All: Aye, but we were 'appy in those days....

- Ntrails 10y agoThe water is completely fine here. I'd not blame anyone for using a brita filter or something to save the kettle - but you're just throwing away water and energy on bottled water...
