Stolen: World’s most expensive bottle of vodka | English phrase 'getting cold feet’
Description
A collector’s bottle of vodka, made of gold and silver and decorated with diamonds and classic car parts, was stolen from the basement of a bar in Copenhagen, Denmark. Police found the (empty) bottle at a construction site a few days later. The bottle’s owner says he was saved by “the vodka god.”
Plus we review what it means to get “cold feet” before a big decision—and it has nothing to do with temperature.
