    Have just seen in the news that Joseph Ettedgui, founder of Joseph has died. I loved the clothes in his stores, the attention to detail was great and they were well made. I still have some 20+ year old ones that I wear. Very sad.
    Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

    Sadly, in real life, I look far more like my Simpson's avatar than Snow White, though you may want to get a second opinion from fc, Sue and all the sss's. Snow White sang to the birds and they would land on the palm of her delicate hand, in my case they just !!!! on my hair (has happened more than once), so even birds think I look more like the Simpson's character.

    That reminds we were in the Batcave at the Zoo, had a sit down and didn't realise that a bat was having a kip directly overhead, I am sure you can guess the rest :eek:

    I clearly need a better understanding of bat biology, as in my mind the fact that they slept upside down would mean that they pooed on themselves. A valuable contribution to my scientific knowledge, thanks Stevie.
