THE WATER - drinking?
Hello,
Im not in the UK at the moment! (god I say that a lot on here!Sorry) Anyway we use bottle water over here. Which we go through a ton of the stuff as its hotter in the summer than the UK. Well can you drink Australian tap water? If so is it ok, or bloomin awful taste? Do people use one of those filter jugs, or just drink it straight from the tap? GEMS |
Re: THE WATER - drinking?
PS, another daft question.
Public toilets - do you pay in Australia? Over here you cant have a pee without parting with your cash! Ive got kids so it can get a pain carrying around plenty of coins on a day out. Gems |

Yes.
Depends on where you are. Adelaide water is rubbish, Melbourne water is OK, and Perth water isn't too bad either. The best (IMHO) is Tassie water, which is just beautiful. Both - depending on where they live. No, you don't pay. The barbecues in public parks are free as well. :) |
Re: THE WATER - drinking?
We have pure rainwater to drink, which runs off our roof into a tank & goes through filters when you turn the tap on. Prefer it to tap (mains) water now.
No choice though, as no mains water where we live. |

GEMS Australian water is fine, just as it is in the UK. :thumbsup: |
Re: THE WATER - drinking?
Perth water is not that great IMO and I believe Adelaide's water is liquid mud. Not sure about the rest of the country.

Adelaide water is fine and definitely not liquid mud :) I do prefer it after it'd been in the fridge first though. :D |
Re: THE WATER - drinking?
We keep bottles of tap water in the fridge. I don't mind the taste of the tap water, though my sister thinks it tastes muddy. I normally find when I move to a new place it takes a few days to get used to the taste of the water, after that I don't notice it.

Re: THE WATER - drinking?
Drank tap water in the UK, drink tap water here - must be an unsophisticated sod, because it all tastes like, ermm, water to me. :D
