Very important spa etiquette and dress

I have a few spa tips to share that I have been working on over the last few weeks with great gusto.

Always wear an appropriate robe or towel. Don't try to skip along minus clothes or people may think ill of you.

If they offer wine or champagne take them up on it but remain somewhat in control of your mind it would be unwise to heave or act like a major moron during your treatments. Also remember you are paying a lot of money for these enjoyable treatments so passing out would be a real money waster.

Always be a little on time that will make your spa helper very happy. Also give a big tip to your very own spa person that will make them jump with glee.

The final and most important thing is to be yourself and just have fun. Respect yourself you spa giver and as always your modesty with a robe.

**smooch** Happy spa going.

Dear muffin,
I have great trouble being a lot on time, so I am very glad to know that being a little on time is enough to make my spa helper happy.

Thank you,
Marilyn

If tipped in the end of a service how is she/he going to jump with glee? I thought you suppose to tip for a good service not in order to receive a good service.

Hmmm! person? them? muffin, you too need to work on you grammar

What this post has to do with traveling?

Gosh Muffin, whatever would we do without your pithy tips? Egad, but I shudder to think. I must stress that only drink the alcohol if its of the first water. Musn't ruin our tummies with rotgut.

Muffin,

Thank you richly for these tips of value.

My wonderment was most enhanced and completed when my last spa visit it was interrupted by a non robe wearing drunken melee muchly instigated by two
major moron trophy wives.

In order not to consternate in a big way my spa helper I happily over tipped to offset the interruption of our harmony.

Haven't we established that Muffin's native language is NOT English? Why not cut her a bit of slack on how she phrases things. Even if you're not familiar with Muffin's post, I'd think it pretty clear that these aren't merely typos.

Without Muffin this board would be awash with the uninformed, the poorly dressed, the drunkards, and other backward types. Tipping would suffer as robeless pikers would use their nudity as an excuse to stiff spa helpers nationwide. Muffin is obviously from the last bastion of cosmopolitan travel and deserves our rapt attention.
