Are you sure it is not a biological threath? It cannot be that hard to pour some toxic into the drinking water system...

No, a kettle heated on a gas burner.

Odd. I've noticed the same thing this week but I don't live in London.
Leave the tap running for a few seconds and there is a distinct Chlorine smell. I wonder what's up?
Now this is really strange... I've lived in this apartment for 4 years and suddenly the water tastes terrible!

I complained to the manager but she says nothing can be done about it. Maybe there's something to this? Maybe our governments are slowly poisoning us!? 😲

Nothing to do with the water shortage and everything to do with your girlfriend being totally pissed off that you spend more time on here than you do with her.

Haven't you noticed that she has stopped drinking water recently?

That's why I drink 'Margaritas'. The 'tequila' kills all the bugs, and who wants to drink water when everyone knows fish go to the bathroom in it.
