Default Off to Albany

For the weekend... But dont bother burglarising our house coz we are leaving the grey nomads and ALL the kids in shockingham...

First time we have been away alone together for over 3 1/2 years...

Our accommodation has a king sized bed AND a spa

So my question is... Apart from bubbles of the baked bean sort... Can you add anything to a spa to make it , ummm... More interesting?

Don't do the scented candles. It's in the DM, it must be true.
