    Try clove oil (you can get it from Boots). My dad recently had awful time with his teeth (had one out at hospital and it all went wrong!!) and they only thing he found that helped was clove oil. You'll stink, but it'll be worth it!;)

    Hope you feel better later.

    I second Miss P's recommendation, clove oil is very good, don't use too much of it as it can burn a little. It's not very expensive, less than £5, I think

  • I have:

    ummed and aahed but have finally listed my watch on ebay (fingers crossed someone wants a bargain before christmas)... no point having a flashy watch when my finances are hanging by a thread...

    paid off the balance (£74.90) of one of my credit cards (not quite so small, but am so pleased that it's another card that can be shut down next month (3 still to go though.... boooooo)

    added another £19 per month to the money I pay my dad back each month, which will mean that I clear the debt to him one month early.
  • Well, in addition to my list, I have had an excellent MSE day
    - phoned HB chasing up tenants rent, they issued payment other day so should have money in my account next week
    - got a letter from mortgage co, passed interest rate cut on to me, thats saving £110 a month compared to this time last year
    - chased up my new CTC/WTC claim, some details were incorrect on the form so hopefully they can sort my claim out now in time for christmas
    - got letter from solicitor regarding my medical negligance claim, dont have to do anything, but gets the ball rolling to see if i was treated negligantly (pretty certain i was, hence they took the claim on)
    - packaged my ebay parcels!!!!!!!!!!
    -done some washing loads on quickwash, drying on radiators, freezing here.
