    I knew it.

    I always told my boy not to waste his money on bottled water when he could take some with him from out of our tap....as I have always done.

    Seems I was right.

    "It echoes one of the best-loved episodes of the BBC’s Only Fools and Horses, featuring David Jason as the entrepreneurial Del Boy, of Trotters Independent Traders."

    Amazing.

    I drink the water from the tap at my house in Phils..... I wouldn't waste my money on bottled water, although my baby son gets bottled, but that is only a few peso from the water station down the road.

    Just a little technicallity Steve, if someone puts a flavoured water in front of me, ie: Tanduay Ice or Red Horse ... then there is no competition

    I get my water from a deep bore hole Rhose, so it comes up pre-filtered. Anywhere else, I will drink from bottles. Where are you in Phils ?

    I did also...for years in Angeles City (not in Manila), as did the rest of the family.

    Never had a bad tum in all that time.

    My son was breast fed until 2 years old though, and given boiled water if needed.
