Looks like the reporter from Oliva press is well certificated to hash and publish his research 🤣

He did after all do a history degree at Leeds uni and then did a MA in SPORTS Journalism in no other that Lincoln University... 🤣🤣.. wow such is the calibre of journalists today.

His posting seemingly was biased and in noticing that this is his first month with the paper, he will need to quickly align his reporting techniques and    demonstrate a lean to the facts not the frenzied tabloid dribble. I wonder why he didn't join The Sun, he clearly has the credentials....🤣🤣

Not a personal attack on the young reporter here but more collective, in so far as readers need to be aptly informed of the facts or at very least given the opportunity to form their own opinions from being able to review the original research, that clearly was not the reporters findings!

When driving from Guardimar to the new hospital as you turn off the N332 to go down to the round about you will see a huge water purification plant on your right.

In this plant all waste water from most drains is passed through this purification plant to provide tap water for the town ( Recycling) then one wonders I for one won't let my kids drink it.

Ha ha 

Yes ,don't see any turning turbines, so must be top of the range.

It would be the chemical mix that bothers me as these guys are half pissed most of the time

Not saying I don't have a good point now and again.

Hasn't all drinking water been sewage at some point? My understanding is that we have been recycling the same water since the beginning of time.

I'm probably wrong, it wouldn't be the first time.

The tap water has a secret government chemical agent added to it which is designed to keep us all calm and stop Brexit arguments. After the last few weeks they're having to add more. 

If you look carefully at the residue in any kettle you can see a faint outline of the Union Jack.

& there's me thinking you had no humour. My kettle's got a picture of calcium. If one reads, it looks a little like (a little picture of Alice in Wonderland), reads "Don't Drink This. V

...

A lot of water also comes from the desalination plant at Isla Plana.

I had to smile regarding drain water becoming tap water, in London what you piss in the morning you drink at night!

We don't drink torrevieja tap water because the local Spanish residents don't drink it. We assume they would drink it if it was ok.
