Checking out the news today and I came across a new drink in America called Bling H2O which is just expensive water! People are paying up to $90 per bottle. The bottle is very nice and has Swarovski crystals in it, but still! $90 for a bottle of water.

The ritzy refreshment is bottled at a Tennessee spring and purified in a nine-step process that includes ozone, ultraviolet treatment and micro-filtration.

I think even if I was mega rich I wouldn’t be buying this stuff!

I’m back from sunny Bulgaria (July 2007). Me and my girlfriend stayed in the golden dreams apartments/hotel in the resort of Sunny beach, Bulgaria. We had an excellent time and really enjoyed our time there. The hotel was very clean and modern as the hotel is only 2 years old. The hotel has its own bar/restaurant which is excellent value for money for instance on the last night we had a salad each for a starter and spaghetti carbonara for main with 2 drinks each and it came to £10!

As far as I was aware Bulgaria was a very poor place, I expected all the cars to be really old like the old Russian lada, which you did see many of, but I was surprised to see new Porsche, Audi, Range Rover 4×4’s and some really nice other cars that I just wouldn’t have expected to see. Comparing the drivers to England they are all NUTS! I’m surprised I didn’t see any crashes whilst I was there!

The pavements are dreadful and you really need to watch were you are walking, especially at night. My girlfriend did fall at the start of the holiday and hurt her ankle which spoiled the holiday for a few days when she couldn’t walk on it.

Even though it was cheap I thought you didn’t really get much for your money as in a lot of the places the drinks are watered down and the food portions aren’t very big.
