drinking water

Will be full timing in France and Spain

Can I drink the water and if it is dodgy will a Britas Filer Jug help

Many thanks

Chris, the only answer is to try it and see, after all, thousands of french and Spanish drink it every day, and suffer no ill effects, and we have never had a problem with the water whilst there on holiday.

A Brita jug will NOT filter out harmful bacteria , if they are present.

If you have any doubt, either boil the water, or use bottled water(which may or may not be worse than tap water)

I have always consumed continental tap water and have had no problems. Some of the bottled mineral water tastes rough anyway.

Have been living on the continent for 29 years, drink tap water almost daily and I'm still here to proove it.

I think the problem with water and stomach upset is not that there is anything wrong with the water, it's just that you're not used to it. When I visit friends in Africa I get stomach upset, but when they come to England they get it
