A couple of weeks ago, instead of winging off to Europe as I would habitually do in late May, I was visiting my doctor. “That has to come out”, says he. And since the offending growth was in a very inconvenient location on my nostril, he recommended a plastic surgeon. So this morning, at considerable expense, the deed is done. Maybe I should reflect on my good fortune. In another year I might have ignored the problem in my eagerness to get away.
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.

Complete and Speedy recovery, Peregrino Paul!
 
These things need to be dealt with. May you recover quickly! (With the least amount of razzing about the bozo bandage covering your nose. The stares are only mildly embarrasing. But still.)
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-
Sorry to read of your difficulties but glad to know that you are beginning recovery.
Take care and enjoy the fact that now you are continuing.
