I must say, because I am a masochist, I enjoy reading Kevin “I Always Wear Black” Robert’s blog. It is so over the fucking top with its pomposity and endless name dropping that it makes you realize that working for this guy would drive you fucking insane. Not that you’d see much of him. Today, he talks about how he spends 250 days a year on the road, attending rugby matches in the Antipodes, giving speeches about rugby in Timbuktu, Handing out diplomas in Preston to promising young rugby players, and peddling that load of old bollocks known as “Lovemarks” to anyone dumb enough to give him the time of day. Obviously, all this requires flying First Class and staying in Twelve star hotels. He gave us a rundown on his favorite airlines a few months ago and who had the best champagne. Now he lists his favorite hotels, obviously, not your Motel 6 type establishments! So, out of curiosity, I checked out one of them… “The Bulgari in Milan.” The cheapest room in the joint is $900 a night, plus, never forget you’re in Europe, with VAT, taxes, service charges and all the other shit they pile on in these joints, you’re looking at in excess of $1300 a night. And as he says… He’s on the road 250 days of the year. I wonder what the fuck that adds up to?
It's a bit red... Don't you have something in black?
