Oh my - logged off and come back to this.
The lady who does the massage is here not called a 'masseuse' but a 'therapist' as she is trained in medical massage a bit like a physio. Are doctors and physios all closed at the moment in the UK? She lives just around the corner, so no travelling involved- and she works from home in a very large, area room in an old farm. So yes, I apologised if it was seen as gloating- no it was not. After months of not seeing anyone, and Covid, I was glad I could finally go back to Carole and having a massage, mainly to help with one of my knees- but thought why not have a full massage working on all areas.
I was so sad that we had to cancel our planned trip to see family in England at Easter- planned over 6 months ago when it seemed that Easter would be OK to travel- it truly cheered me up. No, no gloating- just sharing that I was truly looking forward to it.
Unreserved apologies if anyone felt it was not 'sisterly'.
