Driving for long periods, interjected by short spurts of energy whilst loading up or unloading does not make for the healthiest lifestyle! Not to mention the chocolate bars bought at the checkout to soften the shock of the cost of diesel when filling up our vehicles!
I have a couple of ways of counteracting the unhealthy diet and stress involved in driving on today’s busy roads. Check out the Chef on the Road café at Redhill Aerodrome for a beautifully cooked, delicious full English breakfast – I recommend their Full Monty, comprising just about everything right down to Black Pudding and 2 rounds of toast.
This sets me up for a long day on the road or, at weekends, a well-deserved treat after a round of golf. Tucked away overlooking the green runway at Redhill Aerodrome, the Chef on the Road is a well-kept secret serving delicious, wholesome food. And, for the brave amongst you, you could always toy with the idea of a flight in a Tiger Moth!
To counter my stress levels, I have regular reflexology sessions with Georgina Wills – based at the Chevington Chiropractic Clinic just outside Bletchingley. Not everybody fancies the idea of their feet being handled but Georgina’s confident touch makes my feet putty in her hands and there is absolutely no sense of feeling ticklish. Your feet just lap up being pampered and you come away feeling as if you are walking on feather pillows. Of course, not only are your feet rested and relaxed, the process of reflexology addresses the well-being of your whole body.
