Or funny shaped moles, as they are more commonly known.

There are several signs of dodgy moledom: 1) ragged edges 2) multi-shaped 3) Like I remember. But OK, I am a panorama of moles and freckles, about one third of which conform to the Good Mole Watchdog guide. The rest are multi-coloured or muty-shaped. I like them. The Duke has long believed that I am a four dimensional map of the galaxy, and this suits me fine.

My love treats one of my moles with mistrust and suspicion. It is a small mole on my upper arm. Eighteenth century devotees of mole patches gave them cute epithets according to their positions, i.e, L’Assasine (after which I named a character in a freeform) L’Elegante, The Roguish, the Gallant, etc. My love has named this mole, ‘The Necromancer’ or ‘The Eye of Sauron,’ depending on his mood. He does this because the mole is partly pale brown and partly dark brown-black. Needless to say, the latter colour covers two thirds of the mole. The light side is a bit puny looking.

The Eye of Sauron has developed a tiny pimple. It itched, I scratched, it bled. My love, never at ease with the Necromancer, now wants me to go to the doctor. Why does he have such faith in these people? They’re just going to look at it and refer me to a specialist who will say ‘I don’t know,’ and recommend hacking half my arm off to be on the safe side.

Yaddayaddayadda...

Alas I find myself agreeing. It IS better safe than sorry, and in any event there must be a distinct bonus involved in not bearnig the eye of sauron on your arm. Btw I'd clobber him one for being so rude as to call it that, and then go out and have it tattooed on properly just to spite him!

Some very recent dialogue on this subject

Larians: You are going to the doctor.
Smokingboot: No I'm not.
Larians: You are going. I am God.
Smokingboot. No I'm not. No you're not.
Larians: I may not be God. But I can be Hell.
Smokingboot: (pause) Good point.

Nice idea about the tattoo though. May give it serious consideration!

when younger, i had one that rubbed on my bra strap & was very annoying as it used to get sore. i had to get it sorted in the end.

Got up some dutch courage & lopped it off with a pair of scissors! not been a problem since, (wouldn't recommend that solution by the way)

Scissors?

You're a lot braver than I am.

Thanks for the courage injection!
