Since the Severn Trent Website appears to be having difficulty, here
is the latest press release -


"Bowser Locations Gloucestershire Monday 23rd July 1100hrs

Bowser Locations Updated Monday 23rd July at 1100hrs

The following public health advice has been issued by Gloucestershire
Primary Care Trust:

Bowsers tank water is drinking quality water when the tanker first
arrives at site.

When collecting bowser water collect it in a safe clean container that
has been cleaned out beforehand and stored safely to prevent any
contamination.

Wherever possible, as a precautionary measure, Bowser water should be
boiled before use. Please use bowser water as sparingly as possible.

Please be a good neighbour and check on the elderly and vulnerable to
make sure they have access to bowser water or bottled water supplies.

Ensure that you drink enough water to keep hydrated. Either drink the
bottled water provided or drink boiled bowser water.

Boiled bowser water is the best option for bottle-fed babies; bottled
water can be used as an alternative. It is important to keep babies
hydrated, so as a third option, unboiled bowser water can be used.

Detailed below are bowser locations for the following areas:
Abbeydale, Barnwood, Barton/Coney Hill, City Centre, Churchdown,
Heron, Innsworth, Kingsholm, Longlevens, Northgate, Podsmead, Priors
Park, Quedgeley, Robinswood, Sandhurst, Tredworth, Tuffley and
Westgate.

We recommend you use Google Maps to view your area and locate street
locations.

The point I was trying to make......By now most of us have a respected
collection of plastic bottles which we (the lucky ones with cars) have
queued for. Instead of concentrating on driving to remote locations to
collect even more plastic bottles... shouldn't the powers-to-be
concentrating on filling water Bowsers. So those without transport can get
water locally?

they could fill it?
