Only where there is intent to decieve. I merely made the point that a lot of water selling is a pure con. Wasn't it Coke that were trying to sell Thames water as something special?

BTW, if as you posted I have said that a cup of coffee in the morning is all the fluid you needed all day, point it out and I will pay £100 to the charity of your choice.

Put up or shut up.

You do come across as quite aggressive sometimes you know Bill.

bil

I require someone to verify what they post and it's agressive? My understanding always was that you shouldn't be a naughty boy and post porkies.

I'm saying that jdr has basically got his panties in a wad, and having been shown up is resorting to childish abuse and posting porkies.

He only has to post where I said what he is claiming and I'll apologise and pay up.

Nothing aggressive there so no need to throw yourself in as his protector, unless of course you too realise that he has got it so very wrong.

jdr

It may take a while to delve though all your crap posts about dehydration is not a major problem, but i will have a look and I promise to put the whole quote in and not an edited one. lol

bil

I will be waiting.

Presumably if you can't find it then there will be an apology posted and a similar payment to the charity of my choice?

rugbymatt

So if I was stood face to face with you and you said something like... "Put up or shut up" you would expect me to be happy and walk away chastised would you?

jdr

Any kiddies charity will do Bil. HERE

The bit about :

Out of curiosity I tried a test. On really hot days I have drunk very little except strong black coffee, and not so much of that. I monitored urine colour, and how I felt throughout the day. I was carrying out physical work for most of the day, but nothing flogging, fixing a window, doing a bit of cementing repair and some garden work involving weeding and some digging. The temps were about 35C.

jdr, remind me I owe you Karma will you?

bil

That's what you said.

At no point did I say that a black coffee in the morning was all you needed.

I never specified a single cup, or even a single session.

Better give Mat the karma refund.

rugbymatt

So is there any chance we can get back on topic?

bil

About time too.

So what are we going to do with this issue, now that we have established it truly is an issue?

rugbymatt

What do you think YOU or I could do Bill? Nothing we do will make a blind bit of difference, as I said on another thread the other day.... you have two camps in the UK. The ones who are letting the "crisis" get to them, go round moaning about it, complaining they can't find work, whining that they are broke (yet happily sit all day on a forum) or you have the type of people who just get on with it, try and make the best of it and hope that, while the shit is hitting the fan all around them, they might, if they are lucky, come out of the other end with some sanity and a little grace.....

bil

Thank god for that. I was for a moment worried. That's probably the most succinct comment I have heard yet on the subject. I keep wondering why all the posts when as you say there is sod all anyone here can do about it, hence my comments about people geting off on publically wringing their hands over it.

jdr

Can you not read your own post about you and a cup of coffee, you are welching on a promise to donate to the kids, you are nothing but a bag of shite.

bil

Grow up and get the wad out of your panties dear. You claimed I said a cup of coffee was enough. I said just coffee and not that much was enough.

There is a difference.
