"Not Drinking Water" sign in flat

Really useful post. Thank you. Interesting that OP hasn't responded to any of this, but hopefully they will discontinue drinking water from a source which could make them seriously ill. Might also be an idea to improve general hygiene by throwing out old toothbrushes and that pile of used razors - and cleaning the sink.

Yes there is a shared kitchen, I guess there is a tap in there, i dont know, i seem to remember there was when i was shown round prior to moving in.....What sort of chemicals might be in the "not for drinking" tap's water?
I also have a small shower in the room. So i guess i could get water from that...but i guess thats from  just the same water supply as the tap that i show.(?)

Pigeons defacating in loft tank perhaps

My parents old house had bats in the loft.

Every so often, one would find it's way through a gap in the tank cover (they're small, like mice with wings) and would fall into the tank & drown.

We'd only find out when bits of fur started coming out with the hot water ...

We had that too 🤢

I've contributed to a few of the OP's threads, and we rarely hear of any conclusion from the OP. It's a little disappointing considering how much effort others put in to helping with their problems.

I notice that both here and in real life. People seem to have forgotten common courtesy when they get free help and advice.

Maybe it's the entitled generation or me just getting old?

You have got to remember that when you were a laddie trolls where a lot less common, I think with the increase in general affluence and better living space they have found that suits them to proliferate.
