    I'm about to post an update at the other place but it had better be brief as I have to be at the hospital tomorrow at 7AM to have a wisdom tooth removed - can weekends get any better?!
    I think....

    Been there done that! GA I'm guessing?

    Arnica - before and after. But men generally don't believe in homeopathy, so you probably won't listen ;)

    Correct on the not believing in Homeopathy but luckily not a GA - of the 4 only two have come through the gum, one top one at an angle needs to go as it is affecting its neighbour, the other bottom one on the other side is fully through and without a matching top tooth will apparently eventually cause problems but not now and as having a lower one out does require GA along with removal of some jaw bone and the risk of nerve damage I have wimped out and am only doing the top one for the moment.

    Ouch, good luck with the tooth michaels.
    Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

    You'll be fine, top ones pop out with no trouble. I had one set (top and bottom) done in the dentist's chair, the top one came out very quickly with no problems.

    I'm in your road LydiaJ.... I can't quite get this caravan onto the driveway though. Can you pop over with the keys so I can have a bath.

    Plz thx.

    You won't sleep tonight, you'll be weeing yourself with excitement about the new house.

    :rotfl:I'm a bit slow tonight. Took half an hour of head scratching to get this before finally rolling on floor PMSL. I should clearly stop watching what's going on in Egypt and concentrate on the more important news over on the house moving thread.

    I'm one of those miracle people you occasionally hear about .... I've never had wisdom teeth. I mentioned it to my dentist many years ago and he had a quick look at the X-ray and said "No, you don't have any".

    I guess you are just not old enough yet :)

    I forgot to say earlier, DW who is special but not in any way 'speshul' tends to be terrified of driving anywhere she hasn't been before - generally we have to go together for a recce first the day before and then I have to talk her through it on the bluetooth headset on the day - and despite that there is much wailing and gnashing of teeth if anything goes less than 100% as planned - whereas me, I'm not afraid to look like a t*t and ask for directions only to find I am standing underneath the sign for the place I am looking for. (Comes from the first lesson at consultancy school where you learn to ask employees what they need to do their job better and then take a large payment from their bosses for passing on the info)

    :D I'm not speshsul (well, I don't think I am) but I can't find places and get panicky when it involves anything with maps and directions. I always leave half an hour (up to 45 minutes) to get lost. That's how bad I am. I also don't like asking people so quite often I'm struggling, getting angry at myself and getting all worked up.

    I also don't like driving to new places without working out the whole route in my head.

    So you sit at home with the map, she tells you where she is and you give her directions....

    and then they invented sat-nav.
