But, I've been in Thailand so long that my system has adjusted to here, when I go to Aust for a holiday I always go through all sorts of unpleasant things until my body re-adjusts to the water & change of diet. Last trip to Perth in April was terrible, it was great to get back to Thailand and quickly settle down to normal again.

Bobmac you have to use boiled water when you get back to Perth!

Even when we only go away for 2 weeks we cant use the water here for a few days,I think its the amount of fluoride and excessive amounts of chlorine they put in the tap water here!

At least every 3rd day my shower water smells like a swimming pool.
