I am Wartacus!

[caddyman]

It is now the morning of the fourth day since the treatment to clear a few warts. Maybe I really should have buried a potato at midnight, or licked a toad or both. Three of the four on my melon are on my face and those three look like particularly malignant insect bites, though they are not as swollen as they were.

Needless to say, your hero's movie star good looks have been compromised by a combination of angry warts, a suddenly appearing zit and the beginnings of a hobo beard (though the latter has now been shaved off).

Oh, it's easier to drop the piccy behind a cut than it is to remember the html to shrink it...


Aristocratic Profile

I am confident that by Christmas itself, I shall have have regained my noble profile. Or covered from head to toe in chitin with interesting superpowers. It's all good.

This all looms larger in the mind than in the flesh. O vanity!

Yeah, really not as bad as you think, hon. At some point I'll post a picture of my ankles...

Aaarrghh! the mind-wrenching horror of a face barely human yet twisted into something that is a crime against God and man!

So no change then.

...but enough of you.

If you have a hobo beard then you are permitted to carry a hobo knife. Good trade-off.

Blimey, I was expecting horrific blotches two inches wide. It's not that bad, young lad.

Combine that look with some fingerless gloves and an old tin cup and I think you could earn a shiny Dickensian penny or two down in Lud's dun.

Aren't they awful?
The comments from all the others I mean. The photo is a bit scarey - being that close to the camera and all but as most people are going to be at least another four feet away from you I think your anxiety has enlarged the importance of those tiny smudges.

You could use make-up to make them disappear --- perhaps not.

They are rotters, every last man and jack of 'em!

No, I know they aren't that bad - and the one on my nose has gone now except for a red mark. I was exaggerating for a laugh, but everyone seems to have thought I meant it!

Ho hum!

Look on the bright side, you could make a fortune playing Mundungus Fletcher in the next Harry Potter movie. And meet that nice girl that plays Hermione.
