Packing again….

Very shortly I will be off to pack my bags,as tomorrow Geoff and I will be driving up to the lake district for a long week-end of walking.

I will be up at 6am to go to work ,will finish at 2pm and then be on my way… it means Geoff will have to put up with me smelling very fishy , but it wont bother me as I have become immune to the smell.

So I will be away from my blog for a few days and my mobile is away getting mended so no mobile up dates or twitters…  🙁

Very scary to realize how addicted I have become to my mobile, I feel quite lost with out it, think I am just scared I will miss something  🙂

Before I go I must give a mention to my 2 wonderful boys.. who hardly ever moan about me gallivanting off at week-ends. I just hope they keep the house a little more tidy this week-end…  🙂

See you all next week   byeeee  x

Front of body..

We have now finished learning the massage sequences for the front of the body.

This includes the arms, neck and chest as well as the abdomen and legs.

we have also covered consultation forms and doctor  referral letters.

Tonight we spent the whole evening practicing,which was an excellent way to finish off for half term.

I worked with a different girl tonight which was also very interesting….she is doing the course so she can massage her HORSE, which I found quite amusing to say the least ( wondering how massaging me compares to massaging her horse 🙂 )

We now have a week off then go back to start learning the sequences for the back of the body.

we shall also be leaving behind the bones of the body and moving onto the muscles.

My massage table got delivered today so there should be no stopping me now…….( wonder who is first on my list )

One to Watch…

If you were ever a fan of Joy division, or even if you were not a fan, I ca10mn highly recommend the Film Control.

It tells the story of Ian Curtis, joy divisions lead signer.

In 1995 his wife ,Deborah Curtis wrote the book “Touching from a Distance.”  a book that was on my book shelf for many years.

The film was based on this book and filmed in Nottingham and Macclesfield

I was so engrossed in the film and the music that I did not notice it had been filmed in black and white.

And yes it made me cry……..

A week of surprises… Part 4

After another great sleep in that fabulous bed, I woke up wondering what my next surprise was going to be….

After breakfast we went off for a last walk around the square in Marrakech then back to Dar Soukaina  to wait for our Taxi.

The taxi arrived and it was one hell of a journey getting out of Marrakech, totally amazing the way they drive, and one place I would not want to be driving in.

 We finally left the city behind and started driving into the countryMorroco 114 side… getting a running commentary from the the taxi driver, about anything he thought we would be interested in.

It was not long before we started to see the Mountains and what fabulous looking mountains they were.

After about an hour we arrived in a small village called Imlil, we were dropped off in the center, as the road did not go up to where we wanted to go.

We decide to walk up to The Kasbah , although we were offered a mule to carry  Morroco 059 our stuff we declined….. after 10 min’s I thought maybe we should of had that mule it was quite a steep walk and I was breathing heavy….

When we arrived they booked us in and took us upstairs for some mint tea… I can  tell you my mouth was wide open I had never ever seen such a beautiful place.The views were just stunning…..never in a million years could I ever imagine I would ever come to a place like this.

After a while we went to see about booking a trek up Toubkal… while Geoff sorted it I listened but didn’t really take it in at the time.

We then walked back down to  Dar Imlil , which is where we were staying, situated on the outskirts of Imlil village,it was just as beautiful as The Kasbah.Morroco 055

While we un-packed and settled in Geoff talked about our Trek up Toubkal , and it slowly hit me what it was we were actually going to be doing.

On my Birthday we were going to trek up the Highest Mountain in North Africa, we had our own guide, plus 2 mules, a cook and a mule boy…

 

The ascent was 4167m and it would be the highest either of us had ever been.

That night I fell asleep feeling very excited.
