Hi,

we live in a very hard water area and the kitchen tap
is now "grinding" whenever used. It's one of these [1]

Got a water softener last week for £1500 - that's a thing of the past
for me now.

Looked into the kettle today, clean as a whistle.
What a ******** you must live in.

Soft water in Scotland too. The south has terrible water.

Not all areas. All of Cornwall and Devon has soft water, some other
areas have medium soft. There are also a few areas in the north that
have hard water. there are also a few pockets of the south that have
soft water, but generally, yes, the south has mainly hard.

AS someone pointed out, its really an east west divide. Granite to the
west of the pennines and sometimes chalks and clays to the east.

Most of Wales, the west country, Cumbria and nearly all of scotland is soft.

Its the south east, well up as far as Lincoln and beyond that is all
limestone and chalk.
