Travel size skin care

Ticks
Apologies in advance about this post if you're eating while reading this. I have indoor/outdoor cats that often sleep on my bed. Around 16 days ago, I noticed 2 jet black marks on my skin, at the back of my knee. I couldn't work out what they were, even with my reading specs so used tweezers to pull them out. On closer…

Concern About Changing Dentists (Denplan)
The one-man dental practice I’m with
changed hands 4 years ago (it’s Denplan). The new guy soon found out that his
predecessor had not been doing a good job and had not made recent X-rays; there
was a backlog of work that needed doing. I thought that he had caught up with
it. But just last week, he started to deal
with a…

Skull shaver
Looking on Amazon (doesn't have to be from there, just that's where I was looking) for one of these & it seems a bit of a minefield. Varying reviews from decent to awful. I don't particularly want to spend 3 figures on one of these so if that was the only way to get a decent one then I'd just continue with my clippers. I…
