Brilliant!
This would make an excellent comedy situation piece.

You are in Wales, if its not falling out of the sky now, wait two minutes and it will be.

You're in luck - wasps contain water!
You will need about 300 for a cup of coffee.

Because it will be boiled you can pick it up outdoor as long as it is not wasted much (avoid fertiliser and dung washed in from farm land). Suitable are small rivers that have not passed villages or extensively used farm land, not too small lakes, or even the water butt in your backyard (the water in there should be fresh enough in Wales).

I've drank the water running off mountains and hilltops in Wales, but I wouldn't drink it from further down - most of the land is farmed in some way and I've seen plenty of dead sheep in streams 
Now is it bad enough that you let somebody else kick your butts without you trying to do it to each other? Now if we're all talking about the same man, and I think we are... it appears he's got a rather growing collection of our bikes.

The best cup of coffee is the one you don't need.

Many years ago, I had a house fire - saved the outside walls - and it took 6 months to rebuild. During that time, I had limited power (service pole for the builders that provided two outlets) and no water - well and septic system.
I do have a guest house that I stayed in, but, again.. no water for flushing.
There is a small creek running through the property, so, daily I would fill a large pail for flushing purposes.
I would take a 5-gallon jug to the neighbors and fill it for bathing water and coffee.
The water was heated on a portable camp stove and poured in the bathroom sink. Use a wash clothe and soap, get cleaned up.. get creative with washing your hair.
Having said that, you can survive... just get creative.

Ask in the QA forum? You will then be directed to Google, where you will then search for water. Now, here in upstate New York, the first Google result is a link to the local water department site. Do they have those in Wales - water departments?

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I remember a long, long time ago writing programs out, longhand, on paper just for the fun of it - this was 2 or 3 years before I even had access to a computer, taught myself basic, fortran and cobol by reading books at the library (books! Remember them?). As an apprentice I remember an old SBC from a machine tool at work, state of the art it was at the time (68000 I think), I programmed it hex byte by hex byte on the bench to sequence a row of LEDs in a flashy pattern, how amazing was that at the time! Best of all when the company had it's first network with UNIX workstations and figuring out I could send a page full of CTRL-G's to my buddy in the next office and the look on his face as he hammered on the keyboard to try and stop it beeping, with the boss howling at him to shut it...
Anyone else remember the good old days?

I remember the excitement.
Nowadays, almost every new "great advance" is just the same old stuff with flashier (or stupider) graphics.
