    Yes, we used Lithuanian dentists a couple of times. Cheap as french fries :) and decent quality. Something like a tenner for a deep clean.
    But I got a decent private dental plan at work here, so we're having most treatment done in the UK.
    And dentists can call themselves doctors I see...

    Dentists? They're just lazy medical students that rip out the chapter "Teeth" from the text book and ditch the rest.

    Full of cold Lydia, probably explains the more factual tone...everything hurts including when I type.

    I'm ok about it, obviously a little sad and feeling a little rejected but I'll get over it, we only saw each other once a week anyway.

    th cold sounds worse than the broken heart so that is probably a good sign.
  • Rich Dad, Poor Dad points this out - that to be rich you need to have others doing the work for you. To stay poor you have to do the work yourself.

    Depends what work you do.

    My Dad does all his own work himself. I wouldn't say he was rich, but he's certainly not poor, either.
    ...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.

    But his clerk, if he is still on a percentage, almost certainly earns more! :)

    The clerk effectively has your dad working for him. Sadly, I gather, most clerks are salaried these days.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    Small steps lead to big steps Spirit. I appreciate you must find your current situation extremely frustrating, but I'm sure things WILL improve, it's just going to take time.

    Wishing you all the best, and BIG hugs :grouphug:

    At the moment either pigs will be flying or it'll be a commiseration party anyway ;)

    Regarding your update - lir said it all really. I think the impatience will help you, the cloud to that silver lining is the frustration.
    I am so proud of how you are doing. You are ace.

    Hang on, she hasn't done it yet........see how she goes, and how you feel then. Its likely if there were one that if I were going I'd drive so I could clean out the car and take you.....
