    Feeling better thanks, although the local is wearing off so the pain is coming. They gave me diclofenac and steroid before so no ibuprofen allowed. Just took some paracetamol. Going to think about food shortly. The sedation is very very weird. I'm not sure I like it. I remember her putting the local anaesthetic in but nothing after that. I was disappointed because the fine young dentist who I saw for the pre-op requested to do it himself, but he didn't in the end :sad:

    Anyway, back to MSing. ESA is showing a whole 2 assignments available and they're no where near me. I missed out on a couple of clothes shops on GR whilst I napped.

    hope your mouth is not too sore. if i was you i would be SOOOO glad I could not remember anything after the anaesthetic - who would want to be awake for that :eek:
    I used to have to take diclofenac all the time and took it alongside ibuprofen and anything else i could get my hands on....was waiting for back surgery at the time so first time anything actually got rid of the pain for a few minutes was when they operated and I was knocked out :rotfl:

    Just got my self allocation email from ESA, now if only there were some jobs in my area!

    looked through for details on this and I cannot see any. Do you have to have done certain work recently for them to get this email? Ive done travel last month and history shops before that and I've not had anything? Thanks in advance.

    I think you're both too young!! They are probably after oldies like me with wrinkles so the consultants can offer advice on firming creams!!!!

    I've just received the second email in two days from RE who must be desperate for a nightclub job be to done in my home town this weekend.
    The fee and reimbursement they're now offering is a lot more than the first email (and more than I've ever seen them offer). Normally I would do this job but I'm going away for the night on Saturday night for a hen doo so it would be too much to be out late the Friday night and submit a lengthy report (I'm getting on a bit at 28 :rotfl:)

    Hopefully no-one will take the job this weekend and they will extend the date for next weekend when I'd love to do it. I have emailed them to this effect so we'll see...:cool:

    I'm a bit old for clubbing but the local one that always shows up for me is at the end of the road! One time when the fee gets extended I will be taking it as I can be home in 5 minutes when I am done for a hot chocolate like an OAP :D

    I dragged my sister (31) on the last nightclub job I did and we spent our whole time in the club talking about how we couldn't wait to get home and put our pyjamas on! :rotfl:

    That sounds like how I would feel :) Ive lived here 4 years and before that when I was back home I used to go clubbing. I used to work in the clubs/pubs back home doing bar work a few years before so didnt mind going as get to chat with people I knew. But without that connection I feel I am far too old to go - my son is 16 so if he was like I was at his age he should be trying to sneak in. Luckily for me he is far more intelligent/responsible and spends his time gaming online with all his mates.

    No idea - I've only been with them for a few weeks and have done a travel job and quite a few pharmacies. I can SA from tomorrow.

    I had 4 jobs showing earlier, then 21 but still none in my area *sigh*

    Where does the time go? :think:
