Your physics book says that water is a colourless liquid and you can test this by dipping a pint glass in the canal, extracting a sample and letting it settle. Mostly the liquid will come 'clear' when 'impurities' have floated to the top or fallen to the bottom. This is not a lesson in microbiology as witness the heading; it is about the colour of water as observed from the deck of my canal boat. I live on canals; well more correctly I live on a boat which floats on the canals of England.
Looking at the surface of what I float on, it is almost always MUDDY, BROWN, WATER.
Why is canal water invariably muddy or brown or black with viewed from Pentargon's deck when my physics book says water is colourless?
The book is Muddy Brown Water and if I had known the answer to the dirty water puzzle I might never have started writing the book.
I am conjoined to nature and especially to water and I live a simple life. I eat simple food. I do not drink the canal water. Nor do I wash in it. But, I am happy to live on it and be borne by it.
