Writing in this category is something of a departure for me... But anyway, I came across some interesting bits of information about water the other day and thought it might be useful to share them with fellow dooyooers. OK, so we all know that our bodies are mostly water, and that we should be drinking at least 8 glasses/2 litres of the wet stuff every day. But how many of us actually manage to do this? This amount of water is an awful lot to physically consume, and lets face it there are plenty of alternatives out there that taste better (especially when you are faced with tap water in hard water areas - yuk). I think most of us realise that we should be ...  Read the complete review

**What do we know? Very little, as usual.** The aboriginal population of Australia had the right idea. They knew where to find water, and what to do. They would go to a tree, and cut a hole in it, stick a twig in the hole, and drink the water that dripped out of it. Then, they would plug the hole back up again, to preserve the resources. Whereas we aren't quite so civilised. (That was a deliberate choice of the word civilised there, to highlight a sad irony…) We chuck trolleys in rivers, dump waste in the sea, pour sewage into it, waste it, contaminate it with hormones and pesticides…..

You might have seen the advert for Volvic where it ...  Read the complete review

I did a wonderful, wonderful thing today. Something I should have done days ago but somehow couldn't. I had a shower. Yes, that's what I said, I had a shower. Not in the biblical sense you understand, just an outpouring of water upon the bod. No, I am not normally a grubby person, water and I are usually good friends, it was just a really bad dose of the blues/blacks/greys. When I feel deeply depressed then water hardly gets a look in with me, externally or internally. This, of course, is VERY BAD. Not only is water the very essential of life when taken internally, it is pretty much an essential for raising the spirits too. I ...  Read the complete review
