I wonder how many people (or in fact, companies) will overlook the less obvious uses for tap water ... like ice cubes, 'dispensed' soft drinks (the likes of which are served in pubs and fast-food chains, etc.,) ...

The scary thought is that if you read up on these outbreaks, is that they usually don't give an all-clear for several MONTHS afterwards ... there's an awful lot of water in Pitsford that has to be treated for this ... I think that I'll join Roger with a crate of Stella!

Finally some decent news from the county. Yesterdays headline about David Essex is no where to be seen!

A message to the elderly and less able residents.

Situations like this tend to bring out the worst in some people who will try to take advantage.
If anyone claims to be from Anglian Water, they will have an identity card, on the reverse of the card are instructions on how to confirm if they are genuine.

If in doubt, don't let them in!

I'll have Roger know that there are quite a few discerning drinkers in this area.

Every Giro day I have a few Diamond Blushes with a little umbrella. I only buy the kids the best crisps, none of your own brand rubbish in this household.

Why o why are people panic buying water, leaving many supermarkets to ration it and even increase prices???? We have been told to boil tap water, and those with common sense would do so, and store it inside rinsed out plastic bottles or jugs, as I am doing for my 4 young children. If supermarkets were not running out then maybe my children could still be at school getting on with their education in these precious early years. Or even better the county council could pull their fingers out and provide water to schools and old peoples homes in affected instead of worrying about spending on menial things.

And what is the news from Carlsberg? Don't suppose that potential sickness will interrupt production.

I boiled my water before drinking it as advised and am now suffering from third degree burns to my mouth and oesophagus. Thanks a bunch Anglian Water, quite frankly I'd rather have diarrhoea.

I am so glad so many people are having a laugh over all this, theres trying to make light of the matter and then there is taking the mickey.

Try cooling the water 1st Mr Pants, and then have a think about those really affected. O and finally, if it happens good luck on your recovery.
