Actually I really like it ice cold. If only if I could get one of those American style fridges. then I wouldn't buy squash.

Depends where I'm drinking it, I'm fussy about my tap water and can easily taste the difference from area to area.

Love the water I get in Perth when I'm at home, but normally dilute it when I'm living in Glasgow as it just doesn't taste the same.

water at my mum and dads is tasteless, so is alright to me but it tastes of limescale at my house. It's the water not the taps ... i swear

Evian is the best.

I absolutely love the stuff, I buy a 13p 2L bottle of water from Tesco everyday

I'm almost sick when I drink plain water. Needs a bit of orange or ribena.

Italy is apparently the biggest consumer of bottled water.

Says what we all knew.

Bottled water = fashion accessory.

nope, love the stuff..

That's some high quality H2O.

As long as it's ice cold, water is good. Room temperature tap water doesn't do anything for me.

I do like to 'splash' out every now and again

Don't hate it but would never buy it, unless I was in some foreign country of course.

There's this spring water in Cyprus called Agros - it's bottled in the Troodos mountains and it's absolutely fabulous. Often if I drive through the mountains I'll always fill a couple of jerry cans straight from the source - it's wonderful, free beautiful crisp mineral water when it's 30+ outside. Wonderful.

I like it, but it doesn't taste of anything though. Bottled water = con of the century.

There is a difference between bottled and tap though, at least here the tap water has a slight underlying taste.

I'd much rather drink water out of the tap than go to a shop and pay money for it. That's one of the biggest cons in the world that is, and I'm still amazed at how many idiots fall for it.

Not really, the underlying taste of the tap water here isn't particularly nice.

9/10 I'd agree. But sometimes a nice ice cold mineral water really hits the spot when you're out and about.
