tap water in Birmingham is soft.

My mum moved to London from Glasgow 50-odd years ago and has never got used to the taste of London water, she hates it. Though not to the extreme of not making tea or cooking veg with it.

Surely drinking a bottled water would be sensible. Us over in Dulwich Village prefer Tasmanian Rainwater, at ?7 a bottle its pricey but worth every penny.

Mrs mlteenie's mother lives in the Scottish borders and is not connected to any mains water supply. Their water comes straight off the hill into a tank with only some minor filtration. It's as unadulterated as it comes (apart from sheep piss) but I much prefer the water out of our London Tap!

I guess it's all a matter of personal taste.
