What about tap water thats been boiled and left to cool down?, I was told to do that years ago and have never really had any problems with it, Anyone know if this might be a bad idea?

It depends on the source of the water and the chemistry of the water out of the tap. With the prevalence of chloramines and fluoride here in the US tap water, this does not work.
In the UK, I am not sure, it appears water differs quite a bit from locale to locale.
The plumbing in your home has quite a bit to do with it too, if you have older plumbing it may be copper (or if it is really old, copper braised with lead at the joints!), which is a really bad idea for most amphibians.
