Default OT Warning!


Your tea tastes fine, no trace of Chorine, I seem to remember
disscussing how bad some cups of tea can be in your Kitchen! I think
we both wondered why some people bother drinking theirs and concluded
you must get used to it after time


Ah thanks, Charlie! Hope that means we can expect another visit soon!
;-) Istr a belief that went around at one time that the best tea was
made with London water which (urban myth mode on) was supposed to have
passed through 5 peoples' kidneys before it got to you! When we lived
in a house with only well water, it was pure and fresh and delicious.



They say that you develop your taste buds whilst you are young and that
influences the way you taste things through life.
So the water you were brought up on when you were young will have a
strong influence on the water you like in later life.
I was brought up on a mixture of Rainwater and bore hole water that was
very iron rich, so much so that left to stand it would go rust red, but
fresh from the borehole at around 45f it was wonderful.
That was when we lived outside Hastings.
