Lawn given its first cut of 2010
First Visit To Dentists in 15 years.
I began having problems with my lower right back tooth just before Christmas.
Who wants to go to the dentist with all that Christmas food, cakes, sweets etc. so decided to wait until after Christmas. As the Festivities drew to a close I began to think of our forthcoming mini holiday in Scotland so again a trip to the dentists got put off. Following this I thought of my two and half weeks annual leave at the end of March, start of April.
As my annual leave approached more excuses surfaced, Tuesday night is bingo at the working Mens Club, Wednesday night is Bingo at the Community Centre so I thought about going on Thursday. To cut a long story short Thursday came and went, then the birthdays started, Mine, Carl's, Rebecca's, Bowling night in Worcester. My tooth got worse over the 4 day Easter Weekend (Good Friday to Easter Monday) so eventually on Tuesday morning I plucked up the courge to telephone the Kingstanding Dental Centre. I was quite surprised when they offered me a choice of appointments 0930-0945-1000-1015 so I opted for the 10am slot.
Hardly surprising I will need lots of work to be done - out of at least 7 broken teeth I anticipate at least 4 extractions. Keeping this short - the dentist prescribed some antibiotics to deal with the abscess first and so treatment proper starts next Tuesday 13th April 2010.

New Years Eve at Llandudno
Thursday
30 December 2010 for 4 days £259 per person. Gail and myself have
provisionally booked the last two remaining places on the trip. All
need now is to make sure that I get the time off, which strictly
speaking I should as can be seen from this email I sent to Cath

"Cath, I know this is perhaps a bit far in advance but there were only 2 places left and so I had to provisionally book an excursion with my Local Community Centre. If my (new) shift pattern remains as it currently is, plus if my proposed “personal pattern” to accommodate my 30 hours per week is approved then the entire above period will be Rest Days / Free days. Could the above dates be noted on our forward planner because should any changes to the shift pattern be made, or if for any reason I move to another unit, then obviously those dates could turn into “working days." I shall also be requesting a week off during February 2011, the exact dates have yet to be established but is likely to be Saturday 14 Feb 2011 to Sunday 20 Feb 2011." |
Best Holiday Deal Yet!
