Scotland and it’s pretty awesome tbf.
If I go down to England though I don’t touch it, depending on where I am. My wife is English and was stunned we just filled our glasses straight from the tap.
It really fine anywhere I’ve been in England though, tasted great and of course safe to drink (provided your plumbing isn’t still made out of lead, but that’s been fixed for a while now)
When I was in Stockport and Newcastle a few years back it tasted weird and Stockport gave me bad stomach cramps. Devon was poor when I was there for a spell too, Midlands was nice as it came from the mountains in nearby Wales. Think it depends on the water company but I was bitten a couple of times and decided to not risk it hah!
Your wife is English and she’s stunned you drink tap water?!? That’s remarkable, my 50 odd years I’ve not found a person in England that doesn’t drink the tap water
Her family never done it without going through a water filter, maybe it is more of a family thing.
