Oh Snap, I am so sorry. I think that would stress me more than anything too. Is that really a possibility?!

Yes it seems they use some sort of clamp thing to open your mouth wide.
She was also warned of facial bruising :eek:

mhoc, so glad you can laugh in the middle of all the hassle!

I think that is the only thing that keeps us going, thinking about the entire silliness of it all.

It occurs to me that I should be keeping some sort of misery diary - someone might be able to make it into a sitcom at some points :rotfl:

Its making me feel sick just thinking about it, I cant stand the x
ray thingy the dentist uses, makes me gagg - dentist long ago gave up trying to get me to have x rays as I said it would need OH to force me into the chair

Biopsies seem so brutal - my sister said it took 3 attempts with hers and she was left black and blue but mouth and throat ones look like they will be even more ghastly and inhuman ...

just claimed my £85 aps's from shops done last month. so once in my account, ill do a normal shop (can we do normal:p)without razors and hopefully get another £15 apg.

I would do a large targeted shop to get loads of stuff half price

E.g. Mcvities digestive caramel slice £1.40 in A and 70p in T.

And get a £40 apg:D

Then do your nearly normal shop to get £15 back:D

Errant son has been home today, normally any visitors staying over get scooped up and included in any outings or shopping trips we go on but its not our job to entertain him.

We had a minor incident this morning when Errant son was complaining about his bed linen having biting things in it as he had a bite on his leg so he stripped his bed and put everything in the machine.
He asked why I was getting shouty and I said it was deeply insulting to me to insinuate that his bed was unclean and bug ridden. I said that the only person that slept in his bed was him and no one had slept in his bed since their unexpected visit at New Year. So if his bed had any bugs it was totally his own doing.

And no its not bug ridden. No one else has been bitten.
I think eldest son had one night in the single bed in the same room last month and no complaints.
No cats are allowed in the bedroom and no cats can get up to the top bunk anyway.

(Yes I am guilty of not bed changing but it was only used for one night since August 2016. It is a high bunk so its difficult for me to even strip it and I never make it up, I always left it to him, boys have always changed their own beds)

So he put his duvet out to air on the line. I said to him to keep a eye on it as it was about to rain. We went to town and then came back at lunchtime and it had rained and the duvet was on the line in the rain.

A thought just occurred to me so I went to check the washing machine and yes his bed linen was still there unwashed - I think he expected me to put the machine on before I went to town, then take it out and dry it when I came home :mad:
Ive just told him to put the machine on, told him on Tuesday how it works so he has no excuse. Its only poly cotton so it wont take long to dry if he remembers to take it from the machine after it finishes. Otherwise it will be his problem finding bed linen for tonight.

He is assuming I am running a b & b - I am not.

Deep sigh, its like the skirmishes you have with teenagers taking the p**s ... and expecting to be waited on hand and foot.

Ungrateful errant. :mad:

Yuck. I don't think I'd cope with that. I've enough problems opening my mouth at the dentist! Sounds as though you are the same. Friend suggested that next time I see if the doc can give me a tranquiliser before I go to the dentist. I'm not scared, I just gag!
