Frankenstein and the lost bolts

I developed irritating "spots" under the arms of my spectacles. When I asked the surgeon to look at them, he felt that they should be removed and sent away for analysis. So I went through the procedure this afternoon.

Needles being dug into my face in order to administer local anaesthetic, medical facilities that are a lot less sophisticated than the clinics in SA, a doctor that I did not know, etc, made it an unpleasant experience.


When Arthur came to fetch me from the hospital, he burst out laughing because he said that I looked like Frankenstein that had just had his bolts removed....
