Bottled Water! How safe is this!

i mostly drink tap water, but now and again i buy flavoured water with the morrisons meal deal, when finished i fill the bottles with tap and put in the fridge, in glasgow our water comes from loch katrine and is nice to drink.

We live close to a water tower and I presume this is why it tastes and smells like a swimming pool. I even smell it in the shower. Going to get a filter and some glass bottles to chill and have with various fruit squash.
I do think that everyone looks like babies sucking on their bottles.

I think the elderly who succumb to dehydration and urinary infections etc are the ones that could do with access to regular sips but I know some are reluctant as it means more trips to the loo.
I enjoy a bit of sparkling water with a slice of citrus to accompany dinner, though some to my tastebuds are salty.

I filter all of our drinking water as ours sometimes tastes very chemically. If I want fizzy water I carbonate my filtered water. Cuts down on plastic waste.

Audi10 It's a myth about bottles being dangerous if they've been around for a while. As others have said, our tap water is perfectly safe. Buy a reusable bottle and use that
