Spots

Splat some of this on every day, it'll keep you moist.

Who were the spottiest refs out of all the ones you've met?

Wendy Toms. She had pimples on her arse. But give her, her dues, she was first in the shower after the match.

I was actually going to say apart from her, because I remember you telling that story about the shower, and I had a feeling you might bring it up again.

She sounds OK though - at least has a sense if humour.

That was back in the days when not many female refs were climbing the ladder and there were no separates changing room for them. I reckon she was ambitious and knew at that point she just had to muck in with the rest of us.

Spottiest ref I've met has to be Keith Hackett. I've met him a few times, but the first was when I was helping clear snow of the pitch at St Andrews before a Birmingham v WBA derby, he was the ref. I said to him I hope I'm not wasting my time and luckily the game went ahead, and we won 2-0.

The police stopped me when I was out in my car. They told me it was a spot check. I admitted to two pimples and a boil.

Could be rosacia, which is completely different from acne, although it can look similar, e.g. pustules.

If it is, then you need to treat it completely differently, as acne treatments and scrubs etc can make it much worse.

I had that for years and didn't know that's what it was. I tried all sorts of treatments and have always drunk lots of water. Not touching my face helped, believe it or not, for me I tend to spend a lot of time sitting in front of a screen and putting my hands to my face when I'm thinking was something I had to stop myself from doing. Wearing reading glasses meant that I used to touch my nose a lot putting my glasses in place, now I use the side of the lens. It could be diet related with the common culprits quoted as alcohol and spicy food. Thankfully for me it wasn't any of those. I still get it now and again and find that when I do lots of exercise it goes down.
