The holiday season is almost upon us people and. that means it’s time to ponder a gift for your loved ones—just a modest trinket to show that special someone you really care. Everything at the OC Concept Store in New York can be made to your specifications —and in a few weeks, the store will boot-up Touch Screens linked to a Swiss yacht builder, allowing you to make essential decisions like whether to go with a Burmese Teak or Bolivian Rosewood interior on your new pleasure craft, which all told will set you back anywhere from 25 to 50 million Euro. Note that Somali pirates always prefer Rosewood.

For us though who want to avoid Somali’s of that particular variety, it has to be a spell at Sweet Waters Tented Camp in Nanyuki -a sheltered oasis clustered around a water hole and set in the pristine calm of the private Ol Pejeta Conservancy. Sweet Waters offers a charming blend of under-canvas ambiance and safari luxury. Located on the plains of Mount Kenya, the camp features 39 luxury tents, each with its own private veranda overlooking the water hole. Simply divine, the crew from Cool Bags recently was over there for a wedding in the bush, a visit that came with the attendant ‘morning after’ of the drilling headache, the paranoia, the guilt, the shame - yes, the dreaded hangover. .
So therefore, we thought it would be most opportune for the Book Section to highlight 1 very important book ‘The Hang Over Cook Book’. It basically is a self-help manual that helps the morning after drinker to identify the nature of his/her hangover and tailor the treatment accordingly, with recipes and remedies that suit each invalid's state of mind -and body. Check out too Damon Galgut’s superb Booker Prize 2010 nominee work and see whether the characters suffer the same fate when in Kenya. The Prize went though to Howard Jacobson for ‘The Finkler Question’.
However ver in Foreign Times, we found a screamer –Drinkwel the world’s 1st Vitamin for, wait for it…Drinkers!!!
Basically in the search of immaculate health -you have consulted physicians, read scholarly journals and for 1 brief, crazy moment, you were in congress with a medicine man who may or may not have married your spirit with a bald eagle, but through it all, you've made sure to get your regularly scheduled intake of the 1 substance you couldn't be healthy without: Booze.
It would also help too if one drank organically.
Bloody Mary!
