Nothing wrong with our water. At least it doesn't taste of soap, like London water.
I've changed the word, and I'll check bus times.

Not so much a timetable, more a case of:
"If you get on bus A and travel to place B, then get on bus B to get to place C, which passes through place D on the way. Then get on bus .... and then you're at your final destination.
Not much there, is there. Reverse instructions to get back to somewhere more civilised."
etc.

Looking good... although not sure what you mean by "Why not call in the for beer at the Crown Inn on Curzon Street?"
Apart from that, any more for any more?
