Don't punch the dentist

Yesterday was quite tense.

Yes, The Work and The Documentation is coming to a head, and that's anxious enough, but I rounded off the day with The Fear.

Dentists would have been rounded up and exterminated long ago if they weren't essential for our pearly whites. The chair and sharp, shiny accoutrements are, IMHO, instruments of torture. The tools are smaller, and the drugs better than medieval days, but the gut-wrenching, cracking, scraping and snapping white knuckle ride is probably still the same.


It was just a check-up. The promise of untold horror awaits later next month. Apparently I can't be knocked out "just for fillings".

Joy to the world.

Poor Milo - I guess now would be a bad time to mention that I'm lucky enough not to have any fillings whatsoever?!

Feeling most gruntled as my new N70 has finally arrived! Huzzah!

If you're in need of a little light relief given the impending deadline of death, you web/design freaks will probably quite enjoy the Flash-trickery shown here:

interesting...


so your use of the word gruntled, fids, in in error.

And, geekflash... after all these years of hearing it pronounced "GIF" and "JIF", it may have been "YIF" all along ;)
