I been wanting to do driving for ages, I wanted to do it since I was 17 and she didn’t let me as she said I was always going to be rubbish and my brother be better than me. Now I am 20 I still don’t drive and really annoyed about it. And she won’t let me go with the same one as my friend as he really nice. Then she get cross if I go out with my friend or has to take me somewhere like down the road as it her day off. And I have to spend all my money on public transport. I am doing work experience in a spa and i do treatments in old peoples home and the boss is so horrible to me and she only gives me 15 pound a week and I work five days a week and I work hard. I don’t have alot of friends and I wish I did as I am always missing out on things like going on holidays with them and going to concerts and clubbing with them. But my best friend don’t even like the things I do. Plus I only asked my mum nicely to take me out but she talked to me rudely back. I just want to be happy and I been looking for other jobs and I trying to make new friends but j finiding it so hard. My friend thinks it not fair that she not allowed to come around my house but I always go to hers. And she never wants to take Me out. What do u think can u give me some advice x

In any big city- there are spas for just about any service- from massages to facials. But some places are offering different treatments– for those who are overworked and under-rested. Ebru News reporter Kerry Ederer visited a spa in NYC to learn more about the trend of power napping.

It’s no secret, many of us are tired. Here at Yelo Spa on 57th Street in New York City, there’s a special service for those of us who didn’t get enough sleep the night before.

Owner Nicolas Ronco said, “I used to be in the corporate world, I used to work for Time Warner…and like everyone else, by 3pm, I was extremely tired.”

So three years ago, Ronco opened Yelo Spa, a place where New Yorkers could relax, destress– and most importantly, nap. The signature treatment here is called the Yelo Nap.

“I really wanted to build the ideal napping environment. Even better than when you were five and your mom was tucking you in,” Ronco said.

*As you & your sister are both having babies then a nice photo album is a good idea.
*If you are really stuck for someone then you could get one of the charity gifts- thats what my sister does for "secret santa" at work & everybody loves it! (link below)
*Also, remember Boots do 3 for 2 on almost all their xmas gifts- a great way to save money & they have a big selection for all ages!

They have a specific package for mums to be and new mum’s, so I’ve picked a rose renewal facial, a rose cocoon body wrap and a rose petal luxury hand treatment? I’m very excited for it as I think it will do me the world of good after feeling so rubbish for the last few weeks, but now I’m 12 weeks and am feeling much better I think my husband and I could do with a treat. Do they all sound ok to you? Like I said they are specificially geared to mums to be, so have been assured they are fine and that baby is their top priority. Thanks.

as long as they are undertaken by a fully qualified beautician and they say they are designed for pregnant women then i would say they would be fine! im 34 weeks and had a full body massage the other day by a qualified beautician who was trained to deal with pregnant women and it was great! the only thing different is the oils they use the positions you lie in and they avoid hard massage on the bottom of your back as that’s where the baby is at this stage! enjoy! x
