a sock on the cock....
...as I climbed into a box closely
resembling the Tardis.
well, yes - ahem! I've had so many unspeakable
things done to me over the last year by practitioners of 'medical science'
(otherwise known as 'torture, torment & dignity reduction') that I'm not
embarrassed anymore... honestly I'm not - so today boys and girls I thought I'd
tell you about my latest experience.... a free suntan in the depths of
midwinter. Yep, at 8.30 this morning I climbed, wearing 'owt but an opaque mask,
into a box closely resembling the Tardis (well, different colour and no 'Police
sign' - but it sounds good) with a normal-sized interior lined with mirrors and
big UV tubes powerful enough to fry the thickest of skinned in a matter of
minutes. The experience only lasted 47 seconds, but today was just the
beginning of a bi-weekly intense toasting session aimed at getting my rampant
eczema under control. Hope it works, the price is increased risk of melanoma but
only slightly apparently and the info leaflet very reassuringly (hint of sarcasm
here) does say that any that do occur as a result can easily be cut out.... One
thing that did occur to me today tho, as some parts of the anatomy are naturally
thin skinned and so need extra protection, was that while on many occasions I've
been told to "put a sock in it" I've never, until now, been told to "put a sock
on
it"...... No pictures though I'm afraid - it wouldn't have 'worked' with the
style of my photography website ;o). Lucky I wasn't wearing
sandals.
So there you are... enjoying the
read?
What else of note today.... umm,
well I did buy a rather nice and heavy iron wok.......
