QUOTE (debs - 14/01/2009 @ 19:57)

Spot on - would love to pay for my holiday and always happy to work!

Couple of things you can try for your shoulders, both using acupuncture points:
1) put 2 fingers on the side of your neck behind the ear. Run them down the natural groove you find to the top of the shoulders, base of the neck. You will find a bit of a dip before you reach the end of the collar bone. If you apply pressure it is tender, probably very! Keep applying pressure steadily while you release with your breathing. Do both sides, it should ease off the pain. The point is Gall Bladder 21 if you have any way of looking it up.
2) Put 2 fingers at the back of the knee. Run them about halfway down the calf to the point just above where the gastroc divides. Again, a bit of pressure will hurt. Apply steady pressure and release with the breath, do both sides. Point is Bladder 57, should help the shoulders.

Epsom salts in the bath might ease the muscles off too.
Have fun!

I'm only 37 but most days I feel 40, and look it most of the time, it's the grey hair (at least what's left anyway) that does it.

Think you can talk your way in here with your greying hair and your receding temples! Just cos we're old(ish) doesn't mean we don't have standards y'know

I think it's a brilliant idea.

Can I possibly tag along aswell please? I more than qualify on the age thingy - I shall be 49+1 this time next year

I'm a girlie as well Debs.

Am off to Banff on 4th Feb for 2 weeks so will definitely be up for a jolly somewhere next year.

The last two years I've been on group trips but both times there were only 2 of us boarding - the rest were two-plankers. It would be great to be with other boarders - especially of a similar age range.

Will go and figure out the "contacts" thing, if that's OK with everyone.
