Christine and Nat

A great day today. We had yesterday and today off for the February week so I made the most of it today. As a fortieth present from Chloe, Alex and Sam I recieved a voucher for a consultation and treatment at SPASM therapies. The initial consultation was half an hour. The woman doing the consultation suggested that rather than a full hour sports massage kinetic chain release for half an hour followed by a half hour massage may be a better option.

Kinetic chain release to cut a long story short is a treatment where pressure is applied to over tightened tendons to loosen and balance your muscular system and from there alleviate issues with muscles and skeleton. It was pretty amazing how quickly I felt results. The sports massage afterwards really helped too. My back hasn't felt this good in years. The treatment was pretty uncomfortable, verging on painful at points, but I felt the benefit almost instantly.

This afternoon we nipped into town then mat Nat and Christine to head to the spa for a bit then round to theres for dinner. Nat had made spaghetti bolognese so Roz and I brought a starter and desert. Roz made an Ottolenghi marinated mozzarella salad for a starter and I made tiramisu for desert.

Good food, good company, good coffee and wine and a trawl through a massive pile of old negatives the two of them had inherited a while back made for a really good night.
