BEWARE !!!

To my friends who enjoy a glass of wine or beer or whatever alcoholic beverages you prefer ... and those who don't.

As Ben Franklin said: In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria.

In a number of carefully controlled trials, scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 liter of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. coli) - bacteria found in feces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop.

However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer (or tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor) because alcohol has to go through a purification process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.
Remember: Water = Poop, Wine = Health

Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of ~I'm an idiot with no life~.

There is no need to thank me for this valuable information: I'm doing it as a public service.

Cheers

Tap water in London is amongst the most highly filtered water in the World.

It is estimated that it has passed through seven sets of kidneys beforehand. Shocked

It was like that when I lived there 44 years ago, that's when you could walk on the top of the water. You didn't need the Wollwich Ferry at that time.
