Tap water does me fine anyway, so if they had tap water available at

Drinking fountains at main NR and tube stations, where travellers can
have a drink or refil their water bottles. Just like at all BAA

Hmmm. Would you *really* trust a drinking fountain, considering what your
fellow tube passengers may very well have been doing with it beforehand?

It's not beyond the wit of man to devise a drinking fountain that is
vandal-proof. Especially if it is in a well-supervised location like
right next to the ticket barrier (and I'm referring to main stations
here).
