Drink more water?

A recent study indicated that drinking water is good for you.

Water!  –  odourless, colourless, tasteless.  Sounds dangerous to me. And “they” want me to drink 2 litres of it a day because some ridiculous health claim is attached to it? Sounds like somebody is justifying research money again.

They aren’t the boss of me. Why should I waste my time on an odourless and tasteless liquid?

(For the record  Hydrogen Peroxide Solution,  liquid Argon, and liquid Helium are also on the list of  colourless and odourless liquids that you can’t make me drink)

Some will argue that we are 97% water?  Not me – I’m 97% skeptical of these so-called “water people”.  This summer give me a nice glass of rosé instead. Doesn’t that sound like better advice?

From this Saturday’s vintage release I highly recommend the Muga Rosé.  Also, I’m pretty sure it’s good for you.
