    Just to follow up the second part made me laugh not the first!! I’m sorry you’ve had bad experiences in the past :( I can recommend a really good dentist if you are anywhere near me...I’m in the south east.

    Easier said than done, but it's definitely better to go in case it gets any worse @leeCal. Does anyone you know have a recommendation for a dentist that they know is understanding and gentle?

    @66mustang thank you for the offer but we do have lots of dentists around. I’m in the south east as well, they call it north east Essex actually, but I won’t be specific if you don’t mind. Thanks though ?

    Yes I understand not wanting to be specific I was being purposefully vague as well then realised the south east is a big area so not much help haha!

    I agree with Tori_Scope though that it is better to get the little things sorted out now than deal with bigger problems in the future, a stitch in time saves nine and all that.

    Well yes @Tori_Scope, but parking seems to be a problem. I don’t like to have to walk too far from the car, not laziness but anxiety. I did move and there is a local,one which I haven’t heard of before so perhaps I could enquire about that one. Trouble is they say raise your hand if you want me to stop but the last one I saw didn’t stop! Honestly I’ve had bd experiences with so many dentists I can’t tell you, though I did say I’d had a dentist begin a route canal drilling without giving me an anaesthetic. Terrible pain instantly. It’s not easy to forget such a thing but I’ve had other things happen too, all resulting in pain I might add. ☹️

    I agree @66Mustang, I’d advise anyone to go sooner rather than later myself.

    Oh dear, that's terrible @leeCal :( You could always go and check out the parking situation in the new place before you enquire. I'd like to think that if you explained the situation they'd be extra careful in making sure you were comfortable, but I understand why you'd be worried about the reality of that based on your past experiences! Have you looked at reviews online?

    No, I haven’t looked @Tori_Scope, I have been avoiding thinking about it and it had slipped my mind TIL five minutes ago! Ha ha. I’ll take a look at reviewers comments though, it’s a good idea. Thank you.

    No problem @leeCal :) Take the plunge at your own pace!

    I'm with you there @leeCal, major needle and dentist phobia... always made things interesting! Luckily I have only ever needed one filling, but was able to get it done at the hospital. This meant they could take more time and have more things on hand to make the process as easy as possible. Yes I put it off for far too long, but glad it is now sorted. :)

    My goal today was to wait in for a package to be delivered. Not a problem, I’m always waiting in ?

    Did you order anything exciting @leeCal?

    @Tori_Scope believe it or not my son has a 3d printer and he made a large guide comb for me to fit my clippers. The idea is that the guide comb prevents the clippers from cutting too short. The one he has made me isn’t made so I’m intrigued. Unfortunately he’s sent it by second class so who knows when it’ll turn up. I am looking forward to receiving it though. ?

    That sounds great @leeCal! I really hope it works and you find it helpful. It's amazing what 3D printers can do!

    @Chloe_Scope I can’t beleeeeve I’m still waiting for my package to be delivered. It was posted up north on Monday via Hermes and it still hasn’t appeared down south! I could have biked quicker, if I had a bike and I peddled fast without sleep or food stops.
    annoyed somewhat.

    Hi @Globster, I’m glad you’ve been busy, there’s an old saying “busy hands are happy hands.” Good luck with the course and everything. ?

    Well done @Globster ! I enjoyed reading them.

    My goal is to make it through the rest of the day without damaging any more household products.  I've just had the heater on and it's melted the hoover hose next to it :o  Always stay safe people!
