The Retirement Thread

[Dave7]

Has the pain stopped Dave?

Good morning Welshie. I am pleased to report that, yes, the pain has stopped. There is just a jagged stump of tooth protruding through the gum. I am assuming that years ago, before they capped it, they did root canal treatment so it is dead (but then why was it hurting so much when it was loose?)......I don't know.
So not being in pain they will not see me 'full stop'.
The area is too tender to brush but I can rub tooth pasted onto it with my finger and use salt water rinses to try and keep it clean.

Now that's PPE!

If my doc turned up on that it would scare the brown smelled stuff out of me.

Glad to hear you are pain free Dave.

The mystery deepens.
'They' have emailed the dentist to say they have phoned repeatedly and left messages which I have not responded to. So I asked how they could phone when I have never given them a phone number**. The dentist's response was..........she has no way to contact them and ask questions. Everything is done online by set referral questionnaires that she has to go through for each patient. Similarly I cannot phone her, its all done online and then by email.
**if, somehow, they have my mobile number then as you know that has been unusable for a week (should have that back today or tomorrow).

Get the "Declined Treatment" corrected on your records.

If it was 111 you phoned, they have access to your records, which will include your phone number.

Try a drop of whisky on the area.

Just managed to source and pick up locally - 70+ bricks to use as edging around my rear lawn.
Facebook is very good for that sort of thing, I've found.

I think a certain @biggs682 will be drooling at the sight of all that workshop space!

I'd love it myself actually - very clean, neat and tidy. How long will it stay like that?

It is always like that, bit messier when I am working but I tidy up after each job. The filing cabinets at £25 each were a game changer in keeping things tidy.

Do you want to see inside one of the drawers? On second thoughts maybe no as that would be way to much excitment for one day.
