I drink the tap water in east Lancashire, and it doesn't taste "like a swimming pool" or at least, not like any swimming pool I have used.

 

United Utilities (northwest England) boasts 7,000,000 consumers and in 2022, there were only 4 detections of fecal bacteria in the water. I broke my calculator trying to get that as a percentage. Maybe someone didn't wash their hands after taking a dump?

 

Happens.

Burnley?

It still exists at all Thai airports, and I haven't heard any discussion about ending it. The airports in the UK and EU where the policy was changed had installed new-tech scanners that could supposedly differentiate between various liquids, but even most of those airports have brought back the old limits due to issues with the new scanning machines.

I got one of these blue ice blocks for keeping my food cold in a carrier bag confiscated at Glasgow Airport. No way is there 100mls of water in them.

One of these?  Approx. 6 x 3 x 1 inch.

Yes, I may be wrong but is there actually 400mI of water in this block? You are allowed up to 100mI of liquid in a container.

liquid, gels whatever, are you gonna argue that with airport security? plus wordings with most regulations is about container size, so even if you have visibly less than half of 200 ml bottles, you still can't take that on board, unless you empty it
