Pay to have fish eat you
« on: July 01, 2010, 07:18:24 AM »

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1289566/Theres-fishy-pedicure--carp-used-nibble-dead-skin-unusual-spa.html?ito=feeds-newsxml





An unusual spa treatment is being offered in London for the first time which exfoliates your feet using 150 fish

The Garra rufa fish have no teeth and nibble away dead skin using suction-shaped mouths leaving healthy new skin underneath untouched.



OMG ....that literally would make my skin crawl  scared2:

The room next to mine in the "Home for the Terminally Bewildered" is empty at the moment ~ would you like me to put in a word with Matron?

She is only just down the corridor talking to DS at this very moment.
(I shouldn't listen in but they seem to be arguing about turnips and a window box)
