    Spud, have you got any TCP? that works at numbing the pain and helps to heal ulcers.

    Oralbase either with or without the steriod in it is excellent for mouth ulcers it sort of puts a second skin coating over them so they dont hurt if you catch them. Carl used loads of that when he wore a fixed brace on his teeth which gave him terrible ulcers at first.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Hey folks - re the electric - there is a gadget you can buy- think Maplins sell them quite cheaply- that tells you how much electricity each appliance uses.
