Radio love to show kids who would was well it's going to be did they say they could be of a sprinkling of snow in the east over the weekend I won't be here for Saturday Breakfast because I'm heading to Devon for an Only Fools and Horses reunion and I will be filming it and I'm going to be frozen I'm going to be in Exeter. With Matilda staying in a hotel that's dog friendly so to belittle break for me not that much of a break actually goes and I think we will be expected to do things actually at this reunion. But I am looking forward to and I won't be here on Monday he's going to be sitting in for me because I should be driving back Monday no idea how long it's going to take me to get there but I love driving so you know I don't mind if I allow myself time I have little stop offs and. It's Rick Stein's restaurant somewhere down there no. I don't know but you can get into fixed cost hundreds of pounds are into oh it's called will call more. Or something but anyway he said those are my pants just as we launch into it's a happy. Happy should you and me have had a happy they something in the southeast be a little happy to zone I'm sure on Devil's Dyke of I go into a complete twat I know Little Chefs completely different it's a happy. I'm sure of my last populous applause and. Happy it was open until the 1970 s. There you go who remembers the happy. Ending I'm very one in one design is that where they did a vegetarian Paul salute was deep fried Anyway we are going to be talking about water how much of the stuff do you feel you need throughout the day but also where do you source it from certainly won't be from drinking fountains because there aren't any every school playground would have one most parks would have one most tree corners would have one but health and safety means we don't have them they're still there the Victorian ones they're listed but they're turned off but places like the Tate are now allowing us to go and fill our bottles with water. Do we need. But this is fiction factory. Thank. You at wandering around with bottles of water well if you are one of those people do you refill your water bottle or do you go and buy new ones last year the mare of London installed 20 new water fountains across the city this is in a bid to reduce the amount of plastic can anyone tell me where they are the new water fountains of sun in w one where I live I haven't seen any but they may be spread further afield save you've seen one of the 20 new water fountains please let me know today the Tate has joined a number of London businesses who have signed up to refill schemes and people to use their free tap water now this is quite generous isn't it Nathalie fi is founder of city to say which works to encourage using less plastic She joins us on the line Hello Natalie. You know I am just saying that is generous because we're only meat now on these companies saying f. Will fill up your containers here they will I suppose in a way be charged for it. They were in the way but we were sort of when we policy down here in. First quarter we worked out that actually. Cost something like no point no one pence right so it's not really the benefits that they get of people coming into the shop or increased for and then a lot of experience when they're getting something for free. You know the tiny amount that I might yeah and I mean the benefit to the planet nuff said. I guess you annoy singing from the same song sheet because I just. You know I'm 63 and I honestly wasn't part of this generation that just kept drinking water all day long so I really scratch my head over the need to keep drinking all this water anyway. Absolutely I was just doing some sort of. A local school this morning and a lot of the kids were given out free water bottles it's like just looking away at the bottom of the lake and it's still we've got a long way to go to normalise carrying a reusable bottle and getting people used to just asking for a free refill when they're out and about but that's the feeling I get behind the campaign yes well I love the thought idea actually so I mean the ideal thing is to get a gloss container and refill that isn't it. You know you can use stainless steel I'm saying and you can chuck in the dishwasher Yeah and keep it nice and clean and also that's not too heavy but the thing I love about it is I don't like carrying loads of stuff heavy stuff around with me so I like the idea and the reality that I can take an empty bottle out with me and then just fill it up when I'm out and about yeah and feel like a drink and drink empty put it back in your bag and then go or maybe stop on the way home somewhere else until after I absolutely agree with you it's how do you know how popular this people are to signing up for me not to sit in my introduction the Tate one of the businesses I've just signed up to this to do you have any of that idea what sort of business is a doing at a coffee shops doing it do you know yeah I mean it's a really diverse actually I mean clearly we've already got on the 700 missile station so he kept in place as the 100 in London yeah across London so those things of growing organic casing $26.00 day and recently obviously we've had some more Chinese come on board which is really sort of pasted the numbers but in the pilot that we're watching on we've got around 65 minutes of stations and that's that's why across South Bank Greenwich town center location straight I think London Bridge City there are key part of collar areas and we've got things from like cafes to restaurants to. Initially there is across the border refills game we've got like retailers I mean different sort of you know if we had a 1000000 and some of those how much you just really wanted to for their family and yeah yeah giving them access to the top of my I am I worry because I remember sitting behind this microphone talking about a similar scheme with toilets you know putting posters little signs in on the door of retail outlets saying you may use alu is part of this free loose game it didn't work and they stopped Do you thing is that your concern this could happen. But. You only think if it was really popular for the next treaty 5 years and actually in that time people then got used to carrying a bottle and got used to asking and I'm realizing this is something that they could do then in a fact in a way that was the campaign one because we were just trying to break down the to be on the the awkwardness that some Brits feel 2 thirds of the pantry feel about going into a cafe and asking for a free refill Hey I think I don't really see how it will because only when it does make people feel more relaxed and you know the way to get the human beings halt is through their pocket and the fact that you're not paying for this water will really benefit that and you know that will make people think it's not like going to the loo where you you know you really don't pay anyway but if you think having to pay a quid for a bottle of water that will encourage hopefully even if you're not ecologically friendly that will encourage you to go and refill that you think totally I mean it's really saying it's around the studies on the disease around $175.00 finger he's called a year and say you know even if you're paying a quid for a box of water it generates more than that but you know that's already 175 is saved in a year my thought I by not buying bottled water I know that your very concerned with what's going into the se but I remember I think there's a couple of ways because watching a documentary on Everest and the and that is littered with plastic bottles is not shocking. Just horrible and I mean you know it really is it's sort of in every corner of the earth at the moment you know it's really a big issue but luckily you know it is it is the one that can be fixed you know we we see these everyday items in our hand we repurchased the moment the power to cheat into vote with our wallets really instilled in Iraq what was I Listen Natalie Faye good luck to you found her a city to say thank you for that and I would say consider whether you need all this water for a start. If you can't get on a tube or a bus without guzzling water then. You know or come on the how Anyway I'm not a doctor but given you know the average temperature of this country just along me as I said somebody a somebody did say to me once just eat food that has water in it and then you'll be getting a lot of water you know instead a lot of processed food things like soups and vegetables they all contain water so you'll be getting your ration of water without having to walk around with this constant bottle of water in your hand. Anyway so where are the 28 new water fountains Has anyone ever clocks them right here we go. Sorry I'm just I'm trying not to sight read everyone's e-mailing me about the happy and I will get on to that in a moment. Right hold on hold on someone's emailing me about Exeter Joe you're going to love Exeter it's a great city mixes old with new really well outside London it's the only other sissy I would ever consider living in take a walk around the cathedral and key Oh thank you that's Rob The cabbie thank you for that. Right so anyones are here we go Sue says Joe this frenzy is really over the top and I have heard that too much water can actually be bad for you instead of good for you 6 normal glasses was the usual recommendation when I was young my friends family and I rarely order bought water in restaurants we asked for tap water and then asked them to run the tap so that it is cold to avoid the warm water tank Absolutely. And do you always need water with your food if you are eating food. That you keep needing although I know some people like to drink water because it tops them up. $7.00 to $42000.00 and I promise we will eventually be talking about happy to so many e-mails about this this is. All of this is from team Joe I listen to you quite frequently in Exeter so I will welcome you this weekend if you drive down tonight it will take you longer because everyone is driving out of London. To be going on Saturday Saturday morning allow for a haul. From West London. Well known chefs make Tunks the rockfish has a restaurant in Exmouth which is fish derived and excellent you could go there have a great weekend. You know. Loud to. Plug. Gallagher 23 minutes past 2 where are the watering holes here in this city where all the drinking fountains and where can you go and refill your containers for free and have you ever attempted it this is for me and Joe it sounds like you don't use the Tube Very often I do Transport for London advised people to carry bottles of water on the tube I know and I did smell when I heard that announcement I know I shouldn't have done because I'm sure you're trapped on a broken down you'd be grateful but I honestly did think what you know we're only going from Baker Street Piccadilly do I need to you know cover every eventuality with a bottle of water but there we go health and safety health and safety This is from Angela Jo I've just returned from a highly privileged visit to Vietnam and Cambodia they seem to have no concept of recycling in Vietnam plastic. Publish everywhere pap plastic is literally everywhere in the countryside in all the rivers along the road it is absolutely shocking Yeah and he will be leaving it there tourists I would have thought because I doubt of the locals bother buying bottled water do they I don't know I've never been to be at Nama I'd love to go as a group we were given a minimum of 2 bottles of water a day and on trips as many as needed so a group of $37.00 meant there was a minimum of $74.00 bottles a day for 18 days that's $1332.00 bottles of water for our one solitary group isn't a shocking absolutely shocking it doesn't take much imagination Joe to visualize the state of the problem in this country yeah in this poor country Vietnam that's what I'm saying to her wrists good and having a great time and leaving thousands and thousands of bottles of plastic bottles all over the country she says. This is especially when it to tourists tap water is off limits. Where they go. Why didn't they just give them a container news filter water of I don't understand. It's depressing Ben says Joe I listen to a bit of Radio 4 this morning they had a very interesting discussion on the latest findings about yes I heard that myself the latest findings in bottled water many of the bottles have bits of plastic I was listening to that and really well known labels most were not visible research is now being done to see if they have any impact on the human body I can remember being on The Late Show when all this was happening when people were coming in all my Late Show saying please gloss if you're buying bottled water because this plastic could not be good for you that was a few years ago now as you say evidence is coming out that may be supporting that this is from Linda Joe 2 years ago I went to Alaska on a cruise and that you know where there is a major glaze here we were invited to use their water fountains in fact they didn't sell bottles of water at all in the shops you have to buy a bottle in order to use it well done and that's what I think they should do in London on the subject of x. Joe there is a lovely area by the river where you must take Matilda for a war with some stalls and cafes as you're on the river x. I didn't even know that follow the river down to Exmouth which is on the coast and you can have a lovely walk along the beach it's really nice and many going to be there I will be there Sunday and then travelling back Monday and I'm working on the Sunday but maybe get an early beach walk on the Monday. This is from Colin. He sent me something from The Guardian I've got time to read that Conan Oh The Guardian says it's a myth that we need 8 glasses of water a day doctors have always known that there is no good evidence to how much we need to drink water wise I think we all need. It's a way of making money out of water isn't it this is from Peter. Jo I also like driving and I take different routes to and from London coming back for me over one year via sharp spree Saul's Bray I came through a very pretty little place called Ed's born wake it's a lovely part of the world and I had a meal there the food was reasonably priced and very tasty The area is in the chalk Valley there are lots of quite still make a normal and boring motorway drive a bit of an adventure enjoy your couple of days off piste in Marble Arch I love travelling with Matilda in my mini honestly is my perfect companion she says nothing sleeps all the way through but loves to have a little walk off way through lovely This is from sushi says people order water when they're eating in restaurants because it dilutes the alcohol now talking about restaurants Oh by the way this is from Sarah Joe thank you for picking girl from the North Country is your track of the week I just wanted to let you know that on the basis of your rave review my friend and I went to see the play and me not being hugely knowledgeable about Dylan wasn't sure I would like it. But my friend is completely fanatical about Dylan and so we got tickets when she sang the song that you just played I burst into tears silently It was one of the most moving performances I've ever witnessed she looked like a goddess up there on the stage the whole show was the best thing I have ever seen in a long time moving and I can't stop thinking about it I know it's so difficult to describe when people go what's so good about it isn't it. I can't ever listen every day Joe but when I do I just love love love your show maybe I have a weird sense of humor but I just had hysterics when your caller from Beckenham was on off unlawful inappropriate moments no he was brilliant I was laughing along with him he was great. Joe I completely agree with you about the water thing my children schools are obsessed with them having water bottles in the classroom you're choking we never had them in my day no we had a quarter of warm milk once a day that was it and milk remember that was all the liquid we ever had my late father in law would say that he any drug was if it had whiskey in it we were never allowed to stop at the Happy to Joe it was too expensive we were lucky if we got a monkey old sandwich in a lay by love your show Joe thank you f
