It was in a lovely grand hotel, where Robbie Williams and Westlife have stayed. We had the use of the pool, gym, sauna and steam room this morning (ooooh you should see my hair after the steam room...wow) then we had a very fancy lunch.(dressed in our white robes and bouncy slippers) then we went for our treatments. Manicure, facial and back massage. All lovely. To top it off nicely, we called at a place on the way home for a nice meal .Brilliant day.

Well it was a BACK massage!! so only needed to have my BACK on show!! Oh and I was covered with the towel too.

I feel kind of floaty this morning, nice feeling, I will come back down to earth at 2.30pm though, when Kieran's party starts! He has three 12 year olds having a sleep over here. (He is 12 on Tuesday)
