If there is one guaranteed way to look smooth, suave and sophisticated, it is drinking water from a glass bottle with a posh lid on it. You know the kind of water I mean. You get it in up-market restaurants. The bottle’s already on the table, waiting for you to open it, but you never do, because you know you’ll be charged £5,000, or something equally ridiculous like a kidney, for doing so.
This water was therefore only reserved for the super-rich or politicians dining out and putting everything down as “expenses”. That is until now. I recently discovered a new brand of bottled water called Voss. It comes in a very fancy looking glass bottle and is an affordable price! Just under £1.50 from Tesco. Needless to say I bought a bottle immediately after discovering it!
The water tastes like… well, water. Apparently it’s from Norway. Where in Norway, I don’t know. I would expect it to be from an ancient spring, which contains loads of healing benefits. But for all I know, it could come from a Norwegian bathroom tap.
Anyway, I drank the water. Since then, I have used the bottle twice – refilling it with Bath water. Not dirty bath water leftover after you have had a wash. Bath water, as in water from a kitchen tap, in the City of Bath. To me, it tasted like the Norwegian stuff. You may scoff at me for wasting my money, but I didn’t buy the water for the water, I bought it for the bottle.
Hopefully all this cheap posh stuff is a sign of things to come and I will soon be able to buy an Aston Martin for a tenner and a Rolex Watch in Poundland.
