Bloody brilliant - Drinking water dirtier than the river water

The first good winter storm is upon us, well actually, it has moved on.

First prize goes to the local Prince Albert Municipality for the sterling work in the water supply field.

The drinking water is dirtier than the water in the river, brilliant. Well done.

No doubt there will be some pathetic attempt at justifying the situation.

Keep it up chaps, you're well on your way to stardom.

At this time of the year, we have the annual Freedom Challenge riders coming through the town. These riders have ridden from Pietermaritzburg and are on their way to Paarl, 2300km of hard riding under extremely trying conditions. http://www.freedomchallenge.org.za

The last thing they need is to pick up some stomach bug from drinking inadequately treated water in Prince Albert.

Fortunately, where they stop in Prince Albert, they have access to filtered water. No thanks to the municipality.

Welcome to Prince Albert - just don't drink the tap water.
