Anyone affected by this?

Lots of postcodes involved and the list seems to be increasing?

sky news said:
Tap water in thousands of homes could be contaminated by E. coli after tests found 443 postcodes in Surrey and Kent could be affected the potentially deadly bacteria, officials say.

People living in Oxted, Redhill, Limpsfield, Godstone and Sevenoaks are being advised to boil their drinking water after the problem was uncovered.

SES water said it had "teams working to investigate the problem" while they carry out further tests to "confirm the scale of any contamination".

With E Coli involved, it was probably a typoo.

Looks like the affected postcode list is constantly changing.

We’ve still got some petrol stations closed down my way maybe this will spark a run toilet paper petrol bottled water next?

My poor dog is dying of cancer, not great if he’s now been drinking water with E. coli.

A friend of mine is on a spring supply and has to have his water tested annually. It always comes back with a bit of manganese and a dash of e coli amongst various other things - he laughs and claims it's added nutrition. He's never suffered as a result.
