I prefer Sligo water anyway -- that lovely brown colour and peaty taste -- like a fine Scotch. In the US, Bling Water is $40 — why so expensive here?

Its hardly the stuff of evolutionary struggle, is it? 'Here we see Ugg approaching the tubs of margarine, careful to stay downwind in case the herd of plastic containers should take fright and scatter. If he makes the kill today Ugg's tribe will eat- and stand a great chance of entering today's competition to win a weekend away at Butlins in Kildare. Go Ugg!' Jayze.

Goes like this: Government want to introduce domestic water charges. They pitch the price at €40 per month. Anyone who complains gets told, "Well, you can pay €45 for a bottle of water in Superquinn. €40 for a month's water for drinking, washing, and pooing in is a bargain." The pay-off for SQ will be planning permissions for all the single-storey real estate their shops are sitting on. Watch that space. I’m sure it’s a government thing.
