It struck me on holiday in Mallorca.
The tap water was perfectly safe and clean, but not filtered to taste nice.
All the supermarkets sold 5 litre bottles of drinking water for around 1 Euro.

Why in the UK do we flush our toilets with drinking water?
Would it not be saner to move to the Mallorcan system - maybe with a free allocation of 5 litres per person per day for drinking and tooth brushing and non boiled cooking?

to wonder how much we'd all save if not all tap water was drinkable ...
