what about new filter kettles that are now on the market will they not get rid of the bad things that make our tummy ill. Just thinking of the box of water that has to be bought before you can even have a brew when arriving at apartment, before the unpacking.

hubbie alright with the mass of vodka we get dutie free at the airport lol

Hi J4 - I have never liked to chance boiling the tap water to be honest. When we get our apartment I will invest in one of the water filters that you can attach to your system allowing you to drink the water.

ill invest in new filter kettle and let you all know how ill I become if any, when we are out in April keeping you all posted.

Hi J4,

Hope you are not i'll at all.What do you do when you have to look out for bottled water as well.Not an ideal situation hope they can sort this one out.Lets hope they haven't been bottling it from the tap LOL.

.....maybe this is why alot of people get ill in Egypt because they have drank so much of the contaminated bottled water!!!!

Hi queenie,

You have just put on here what I was thinking.I often wonder about the glass pop bottles etc which are recycled are they safely sanitized,as the hygiene has a lot to be desired in some establishments.

Hi WA good point makes you wonder. The only time I have been ill in Egypt though was when we 1st stayed in Luxor. I was ill for about a week when I got home but I put it down to the tuna sandwich I bought at the airport. Hubby as really ill in October in Sharm and he put it down to the draught lager that he drank one evening.

i have got a good one for you i make my own have a still is a water purifier but also if you make some home Mada alcohol you can put that through it to make your own vodka or whisky etc got it from a brewing supply shop where i get things as i make my own wine etc they sell the kits to make a wash that is 23% and when you put it through it ups it to 100% it boils the water and condenses out pure water etc and looks the same as a large kettle

I am taking over with me in April one of those filter kettle and one of those brita filter jugs, I will let you all know if I am very sick or not when we get home.
