Dear fellow travellers 
I’m currently in Ullapool, Scotland and had a very poignant and touching exchange with another woman at a local market.  I bought a knitted headband from her. As I took off my hat and put on the headband we both realised that our hair was similarly sparse and immediately knew why. She came out from behind her stall, we talked, hugged and cried.

    Isn’t that awesome. BC stinky does have a way of bringing us altogether.  I’d love to see a picture of the headband you bought too.  Big hug. Margie xx

    What a special experience @JuMuKu I have had one of those weeks where I have felt a bit overwhelmed by life with these annoying metastases - and your little story made me smile.  So thank you for sharing it.
