boots will special order you a bottle of purified water for 4 quid a pop.
i can't find distilled anywhere. Ionized water is around for car batteries and irons but you don't want to use that.

Distillation is a process by which water is boiled until vapor is produced. This vapor is collected and cooled until it returns to a liquid state. Because minerals are too heavy to be carried by the vapor, the resulting water is completely free of additives.

Purified water denotes a process by which contaminants and/or minerals have been removed from any water source. It could be tap water which has been forced through a charcoal filter or water treated with ultraviolet light at the grocery store. The designation 'purified' can be applied rather broadly, so a consumer should not be swayed by its use on a label alone.

Distilled water is by definition purified.

I will be sleeping in the UK saturday night, i have the Bells Purified Water from boots. I'll see how it goes.

The discarded water from a tumble dryer is distilled but DON'T use it unless you want to breathe in fabric conditioner flavours!!

Have you considered drinking mineral water?

mmmmmmmm...so just cause its says Purified it still might not be reet!! hahaha i might as well carry on with Boiled water...Thanks and i will carry on searching and looking and one flukey day i will find some and buy the lot!!!! (why invent it and never sell it?) mental world!! ...Ewww i wouldnt have the water from my dryer! hahaha dont worry... Think as i understand it,as long as its not got minerals init its better than tap?? am i right? Thanks for all your replys x x x

I do not know what you have for water over there, but water treated by RO (reverse osmosis) or Deionized water will work the same as distilled.

In the late 60s, as a lad in the USAF, I spent a great year and a half stationed at RAF Alconbury near Huntingdon.

I had a great time, met a lot of my wonderful British "cousins", and learned a bit about the other "football". (Also saw some cool things on the telly and listened to the wireless all the time.) I still remember zooming around the English countryside in my Morris Mini, and I wish there were bars here in California that are like some pubs were there. (Not that I visit bars all that much.)

Interestingly, I'm sure that I had serious OSA, even back then.

Sorry this doesn't help you, as you are surely looking for some English folks with whom to correspond, but I couldn't resist a quick reminisce.

Cheers!
