Cooking at the Spa

Going to the Spa I went to a spa this weekend just gone (3/4 Feb) and decided that I should write about it. Especially as my colleague told me to. That and it was fucking odd at times. As I relate my story you will soon find out what I mean. The tale of the spa In 2016 I got married and then turned 30 so my best friend thought it would be a nice idea to book us in to a spa. This is a lovely idea and I have never been to one before. There is a slight problem, I don't like anyone touching me so most of the treatments were totally ruled out. As someone who suffers from anxiety if I don't know someone really well then I can't have them touch me so I cannot have a massage or facial or even have my nails done by another human being. There was a way round this though and I took advantage of that. Proof of me getting married which is unrelated to the story. I trust Dave and he is allowed to touch me. The spa itself was a mile or so outside of Newbury and, as the only o...

Things that amused me recently

1. Our local McDonalds is closed for a refit and the thing that is most amusing about this is that people are really confused by it! Like they can't cope at all. So many drivers looking disappointed as they slow down near the entrance and so many lost looking teenagers at the end of the day who can't pop in on the way home from school for their burger and fries. I even had to help out a nice Irish man because it was first thing in the morning and he didn't know where else he could get a coffee from. 2.

It is amusing because it is a right proper mystery. Also, the local press are on it now and are swarming round with TV cam...

10 things about me

I did this on Twitter earlier but it might need some explaining so here it is:             I taught myself some key words in Welsh so I can recognise them written down and understand them when they are spoken but I can’t write it or speak it though.             I love Japanese horror films and detest the American remakes. I don’t see the point in them and they are never as good. See Ringu / Ring and Ju-on / Grudge for examples.             In the car with dad we once almost ran over Frank Lampard and John Terry on the same day but on separate occasions as they stepped out in front of our car.              I have a favourite Japanese actor called Tatsuya Fujiwara . I discovered him in Battle Royale when I was 14/15 and have seen almost everything he has been in either on DVD or online. I am catching up on a couple of films I have missed because sometimes ...
