    Goodness this is so confusing, i cant sleep with worrying, we havent ever been in this predicament before, i dont know whether i pay for the dentist, scripts whatever, thank you i shall try and fathom it out.xx

    Try to put off going to the dentist till you get your exemption certificate, it will list on there what you are entitled to.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.
