Dumber Than A Very Dumb Thing

Even by the (admittedly very low) standards of the tin-foil-hat-wearers of California this is bonkers ...

I love the concept that it hydrates you better - which is useful because the diarrhoea is going to dehydrate you something shocking ...

Z-M I heard it as 'A peck o' muck afore thee dees'. Same principle.

Spring water from a known, clean, local source can be lovely - but buying it at the end of a dubious (and ludicrously expensive) supply chain is madness.

It's not the 'muck', it's the parasites that would worry me - even houses with private supplies tend to have UV to kill the nasties these days.

I agree that much tap-water tastes vile - it's a treat to go to the Highlands to remember what proper water is like.

You don't have to go that far, Dave. The water at Seven Springs ( Cherbrook Valley ) on Cannock chase is very nice also.
Used to camp around there when we were kids ( and no we didn't pee in it, well most off us didn't ) ;-)
