Clearly he has been a busy boy

It helps pass the time.

Just back from my walk and the sun is shining.

That floor in the garage is stickly slightly tacky, which means you will all have to wait for the next exciting photo.

In the mean time a photo of where I should have been in 2 weeks time.

Two bank holidays next month.

Latest instalment.
Not a moan. Some people don't like the phrase but "it is what it is".
I eventually got through to the BUPA dentist. They are not even offering extractions. All they offer is telephone consultation and prescriptions for pain killers.
Mine is offering extraction but only for those in severe pain and TBH I cannot claim that I meet that criteria. Its a constant ache which is sharp if I accidentally push the hanging crown against the gum (or remains of the tooth..........not sure which it is).
I have found I can eat mashed banana, soup and I am just now enjoying sucking on a bag of quavers. Life is good............or at least better than the alternative

@classic33 re the phone.
I spoke to a repair guy who knew what the problem was/is...........it's the charging port. I have left it with him, it will cost me £30.00 and take 2 days.
I thought I had found a solution with these new fangle pads that you simply lay the phone on and it charges. Then I found out they don't work for the Samsung J5.
Again, thanks for the offer to send me a charger, very kind of you.

Here if you still need one, and aren't fussy about it being a single complete unit. Plug to phone.
