I had missed this report, so was glad that you linked to it in your BA F/LH C report. I'm surprised that you hadn't had massage before. I think it is a great treat, especially traveling in Asia where it is often very well priced. Now that you have taken the plunge and found it pleasurable, perhaps you'll do it again. Try the foot massage - I generally walk out feeling as though I am floating on air.
I really liked reading about the entire TG experience, as I have yet to fly TG myself. I was going to ask what you thought about such open seats, then saw that gleff had commented on it. It seems very exposed to me, but you said you were content, so that's good.
