On the subject of tanning/skin stuff, about 11 weeks ago I visited a free skin clinic for a checkup. The were concerned about a major rash on my ankle that was resisting treatment. A strong cortisone ointment applied daily has mostly fixed that, but they also noted two spots of concern that are being monitored. I see them in 16 more days & will know more then.

The visit was organised by the Men's Shed Vice President. One fellow was reluctant to attend, we basically shamed him into going. He had a melanoma removed from his chest a week later. Plus the President of the group had a small one excised from an ear, caught that one just in time.
