I am home!!!
I came home about 3:30pm
First thing I did was go to tiffin before i even walked into the house
he has been down with me gone so I brought him inside for fuss
he was very energetic and happy ^^
So Monday I left to go to Sheffield, never been before
I met Ed at the station and he took my case from me~
We got on the train and it didnt take us too long to get there
Upon arriving at the station as soon as you open the doors this is what
greets you
Its amazing!! just a lovely water feature to greet you into the city
I was surprised
we walked about 8mins to our hotel and my god the hotel.....i know it was 4*
but it was unbelievable! I was gob smacked I had never been in such a swanky place
We couldnt go to our room as it wasnt ready but we were able to leave out cases there
so then we went exploring~
Just outside the hotel a food festival was going off
so they had loads of local foods and a lil farm kinda showing where it comes from
we got something to eat i had sweet potato soup~
went round a few shops and then went back to our hotel
this was our room to greeted with!!
Immense and it came with so many freebies
the bathroom had a bath i was so grateful
and our view looked out onto the peace gardens (which were pretty) and you can see
how busy it is cus of the market, and it looked at their old council building
we relaxed a bit and went round some shops, mainly charity and game stores
not everything was open tho cus of bank holiday
but I did get two tops from charity shop
both £3 each
We decided to go check out the spa facilities. We got given a robe and slippers and a towel
we could go use the pool, steam room, aroma room, ice cave, rock sauna, experience shower.
so i went into the pool with Ed it was a lil chilly, i havent been in a pool for over a year
i can do some swimming strokes better than him tho XD i have elegance in my swimming XD
so i was giving him some pointers. I swam a bit but didnt wanna do myself in.
Then I went sauna for about 2mins (hate hotness) then ice room 2mins (too damn cold)
the experience shower for like 15mins XD there was no que so what the heck
it was amazing!!!! I loved it sooooo much
you could have it gentle with coloured lights and scents, in drenching you or freezing to cool off
drench was my number 1 it was soooo nice cus it was warm and powerful but in a soothing way.
then we went up to the room and showered off
then we got back and I got dressed for dinner, it was a 3 course dinner... I cant remember the last time I attempted a 3 course dinner..
so first off the bat i had mackerel with summer potato salad
that was filling in its self!!!! Really dense but tasty
Next up I had king prawn linguini which was nice, but far too much of it far too much
enough there for 2 people. i liked the bread on top but Ed ate a lot my dinner
Then finally was cake which was very nice with cream but I dont eat cream
We went back to the hotel room stuffed. I couldnt breathe i was so damn full
so i got into comfy pajamas then that was day 1
Day 2 started badly for me
i had done so much the day before that in the night my body was just poorly
almost like into shock. i hated the night so very much
i was shivering and sweating at the same time, awful aches and feeling unwell.
didnt wake ed tho XD
We got up and dressed ed is sooooo hard to motivate first thing in the morning
i have to quickly hop out of bed otherwise he'll just lay cuddling me whilst im just pouting XD
we had breakfast waiting for us. I have experienced a breakfast bar before
but not on this scale.....you name it they had it
i was blown away by the range and it was all you could eat. and if that wasnt enough there was the menu too at no extra cost!!!
So I started my day with a bowl of fresh fruit, actimel and fresh orange juice
then cereals and finally honey toast. I wasnt into having omelettes or english breakfasts
ed had his fair share of food XD
we let our food settle then we caught a bus up though the highstreet for about 10-15mins
to a park which had a museum too all free
the museum was quite good, full of taxidermy i have to say. no fake animals used.
full of children (alive) two came up to me and grabbed my hand!! i thought "WHAT?!"
ed was laughing saying i was running off with kids
There was a penny crusher machine, my brother collects them so i did him one
you need £1 and 1p to use the machine. I had a £1 but i didnt have a penny!!!!! D:
but ed gave me one ^^
My brother was happy with it when i gave it to him today :D
We walked round the garden for a bit then we walked the bus route back into town
jeez it was a long cold walk i was starting to get peeved cus all i wanted
was a cafe, hot drink and a sit down
we passed loads of damn cafes but ed was dead set on going to this particular one
he kept saying "just another minute or two" >.>
We finally found it. I had earl grey tea and it was the best damn tea ive had
in my entire life. It was with real tea leaves and i got 3 cups worth!!!
we found another cafe i chose it cus it was full of pretty cakes
i had home made tomato soup it was nice :D
then we walked to town and back to the hotel
were we basically did the same as yesterday but we had our treatments
a lovely 20 year old girl did my treatments. I had a facial and head massage
very soothing ^^ Ed was in another room having a massage.
I didnt spend so much in the facilities as i was relaxed after my treatment
i wanted to wash my hair before my dinner. no one was around so i grabbed my shampoo
went to the experience shower and washed my hair in under a minute it washed it out
so damn fast. that was the best shower ever! I came out with a grin on my face XD
dinner time. ugh another 3 course but it wasnt as much as the day before
i had beef something or other tasted more like pork but nice
Then I had chicken with something i have no idea what i was eating it was nice
then finally a brownie with chocolate ice cream, cant go wrong right?
we went back to the room stuffed once again
and thats when a few things got outta line, lines were crossed, tears and words were shead
but i think we've cleared the air and were still ok. for now.
the morning i was looking forward to breakfast
i had fruit again, honey toast and beans on toast ^^
then we left our cases with the hotel and looked round the shops and the market
i found this manga book
i liked wolves rain 10+ years ago i have the anime on dvd but i have never ever seen the manga
it was never sold in the UK so I got it for £3 just so i could check it out really
then we a drink in a nice little cafe we got the last seats!
I had hot chocolate and butterscotch cake OMG it was amazing that i cake i could have eaten
for days on end!
then we went for the train pretty much
and we parted ways
wishing each other the best and to hope we meet up at christmas
he grabbed my hand and kissed it ^^
and thats my spa trip to sheffield~
Im so worn out!!!
I dont want to see food or water for a while
