Hi Group

I got the water quality report today and it has this to say...(cut & pasted
from the Word doc)

Mind you, you could replace "water quality" with 'rocket science' and i
wouldn't be any the wiser!!!

river derived.

It would help if you (1) included the column headings, and (2) removed
all the superfluous spaces added by word during the copy/paste.
That would not only make it easier to read, but we'd all know what those
different column entries referred to!

Can't really do it. It just comes out a jumbled mess when i C&P it!!

I'll wait till i get a sample kit and test the water in the tank, as it is,
rather than the tap water. Cheers tho'.

When you get your kit, it will still be handy to test your water out
of the tap so that you have a baseline.

Aye. Good point. I'll do that.

Won't be till early next week now tho'. I'm at work the weekend and the
last 3 days of the holiday are all fully booked with fun days out that will
probably cost me a packet!! So I ain't got the time, or the money, till
then...
