Dental Woes

In my long life, due to shifting countries regularly, I have had quite a few dentists. At least one or two have been quite good. This charming lady has actually had me laughing in the chair, no mean feat I can tell you! Yesterday I only had half my support team in place, Alistair having backed out to frowst indoors over games and cartoons. Since I am undeniably the most fearful of dental patients I was unhappy about this. But at my great age it is hard for a youngster to understand that the more family are in the room with m the better I feel and hence the less likely to hide in a corner, snivelling.

However it was only a check, clean and polish, so my whimpering soon ceased and we shot off to Brewerkz for lunch, where Alice had, last week, repeated her Manila Hardrock performance and sampled two beers. Today was a Tio Pepe and wine occasion though and we had a splendid feast, and a good laugh together. This latter, of course, is not at all unusual.
