    Tis indeed an easy fix - yanking my tooth out 😬 Couldnt see a problem at first (and of course it wasn't actually hurting while I was in there 🙄) but an xray revealed a hole under a deep filling, right at the back, near the bone 😬 No easy way of filling, so removal is best.

    She offered this afternoon or Thursday- I initially said Thursday since we have visitors on the way, but after conferring with Mr C, we decided it was best to get it over and done with so I'm currently having a cuppa while I wait to go back 🙄

    And because that's not enough to deal with, the car has thrown up an engine malfunction light 🙄 Yes, the car that had an MOT 4 days ago 🙄

    Tried ringing the garage but they didn't answer - might just pop round on the way back to the dentist to see if I can book a slot 🙄

    Far too hot to deal with this nonsense!

    Right. Cup of tea had - tooth is helpful hurting again now so dentist can see I'm not imagining it 🙄

    Car ditched at garage - nice man is going to plug the diagnostic machine in while I'm at the dentist. Sick of today!
