Morning all!

Just a quick message to advise you all to check your equipment now and again and I don't mean your cleaning equipment.

Last year at the age of 35 I found out I had testicular cancer and received the right treatment to beat it and continue to beat it and I was lucky. Its a common cancer in younger men and is also the easiest to treat. Since telling my circle of friends this, 3 of them found lumps on themselves and were then lucky enough just to have cysts.

If you think "That won't happen to me" - that's exactly what I said. I now get regular check ups and have a clean bill of health.

I'm not looking for sympathy - I just want more guys to check themselves more often.

Have a good day!

If you note anything unusual like blood or lumps where it should not be then DO SOMETHING AOUT IT. Some one close to me ignored the signs for 6 or 8 months and it was very nearly too lte. Two years on and they are still not well.

Please don't think I am rattling on don't ignore it.
