Turkish

After a wee chat with a friend who has the same condition as me, the recommendation was try Turkish baths.
So dutifully, N and I turned up at Porty baths slightly nervous as to what this entailed.
Not quite a spa and because was so cold the rooms that should have been tepid and ‘cald’ were just freezin!
However we made the best of it in and out the steam room and then built up going into the plunge pool, a baltic, brain freeze 12 degrees. By the fifth circuit we both did it. Swam across the pool and oht for a shower. The feeling was agony of the cold then ecstasy of coming out. Felt a million dollars afterwards and my legs were so much less swollen I was walking on air. We left to walk the prom and couldn’t get over how warm and invigorated we felt. Buzzing!
Treated ourselves to our Monday usual of Cullen Skink this time at Miros and gave it top marks based on the fish content. Watched the world go by and felt somewhat smug.
Home to garden til dark which was 5.30 so finally managed to give the garden the big haircut it’s needed for ages. Much tidier
All in all a great day lots achieved and signed up for more Turkish baths just to get that high again.
