The news agencies were buzzing a couple of weeks ago when Angela Jolie announced she had had a double mastectomy to reduce her chances of getting breast cancer. To add a rather sad aspect to it, her auntie died a week later for breast cancer, so surely her reasons were justified for what is seen as rather a drastic measure to take, but when you're life is at risk does it take much working out?
But, what amused/disgusted me was the headline at the weekend on Sky News (one of the few apps I have on my iPhone) 'Angela makes her first public appearance since the op'. Not only did they think it newsworthy, they made it 'Breaking News' as if it was 'news'. What a bunch of dunces - I wonder how they can sleep at night.
On a more mundane, personal matter, I'm really feeling my legs today after the weekend's exertions! Ouch!
