View Article  First spa of the Winter season (indoors)
My indoors hot spa has not come without hassle!!
But now all is well and I am ready to rumble once again, but several things are niggling me!!
First and foremost is the fact the the plug will get damp with condensation!! But I have built a cover for it so I am hoping it wont. Its an RCD plug so it should trip if it does get damp, as it did yesterday, but I dont want to take any chances!
Also the spa is over chlorinated at the moment due to my chlorine shock yesterday, and the level has not dropped. I have even had the cover off to help it to drop but that hasn't helped so tonights test spa might be a little stinky!!...because the spa is now set in my dining room I have had to cover up the light switch and wont be able to use it when the spa is running. But I have set up to 15 candles around the spa so there should be ample light, and it should equally make it very relaxing! Oh and my towelling gown is now drying in the dryer so that will be nice and warm too!!
In other news:
Absolutly freezing today, and there was also a dusting of snow during the night, but that soon melted...we are about the only place in the whole of the UK thats has missed the snow this week, thankfully!!
Derek and I have also been on a bit of an Opera fix with the Magic Flute and Wagners Das Rhinegold! He got the dvds from Amazon and this come as a nice surprize midweek!! Derek has also booked our spring gettaway at a delightful cotage in Dorset! It a gorgeous converted barn with its own heated swimming pool and jaccuzi bath. Now I have never has a jaccuzi bath before so this will be new! It should be like the spa only less powerfull, with gentle bubbles insted of my spa's "massage" power bubbles! However, I am really looking forward to it, and the cottage is in an area close to Cheddar gorge which I loved visiting as a child!! No dought we will have many walks with Sirius that week! *grinns*
Ok thats it for now...will be back soon!

So whats been happening?
Well Derek and I had a fantastic time in the Snowdonia national park, and my masonic convention in London went very well indeed!! It was a very long weekend and I was absolutly shattered when I got home late on Saturday. It was also the first time I have attended a Scottish Lodge which I felt was a special privledge...I have also been delving much deeper into Masonic study, which has included Sacred Geometry and is a subject of amazing fascination that it just blows me away!!! Anyway I have no idea at the moment when my Raising will be, but I want to be fully prepared in mind and spirit to be able to take my Sublime Degree. I still need to work on my F.C. Obligation and the questions though, but I am getting there!!!
Anyway, thats it for now!
