Ate ribs and one of my teeth just fell out. :(

Pro Tip.

It wasn't the rib that ruined your teeth, it was something 1-2 years ago.

don't you have a dentist? I've seen articles in papers of recent years where people have literally took their dentist to court and sued them for neglect/not catching decay. they got fariyl large sums of money too..

Don't think I'd ever do that tbh not with how hard it is to get another


I could have taken mine to court recently I reckon.

I had a tooth where it felt like where was a vertical line running on it like hair thin, I was at the dentist one time getting a filling and asked the person doing that if they could check that tooth for me visualy real quick to be told "I'm not the dentist" yea but your in my mouth doing a filling right now and it takes 3 seconds to look...... :rolleyes: (I didn't say that but cmon .....)

anyway I just ignored it and about a year later that tooth split and about 70% of the tooth fell out


it should have been picked up by the dentist surgery regardless of me pointing it out or not, I know I could have sued them for a good 17k or so easy.


They did attempt to rebuild that tooth though and it's holding, feels like a tooth too, they did a hell of a job rebuilding it.

makes me wonder if "they know" ultimately they should have spotted it before.


I'm not American though so consider it my fault for not speaking up about it, even if the law states different.

I've been out of the game too long and although these aren't service items, do they get the diagnostics on these days to check for faults ? guessing battery voltage and alt output would be flagged.
As said a few posts back i limped home in mine, breakdown callouts can be hours, was looking at that AA garage cover where they pay £530 ish towards every breakdown cost (and they are doing a third off sale) ok if an injector goes bad
pretty simple checks for Battery and alternator though, or earth lead if its getting on a bit

Diagnostics, you'd think so wouldn't you. Cost a small fortune for the service as well.

Well after a bus trip lasting an hour and sitting in the car for an hour and a half waiting for the recovery guy to turn up he connected it up to one of those big jump starter things and it started first time. Did a diagnostic check with a meter, good charging rate so the battery is duff. He had one on him so paid for that so battery + fitting + £25 surplus on the recovery callout as car is over 10 years old thats another £125 gone but at least its up and running again.

n.b. had one of those small battery jump start things in the boot I bought last year but its been sitting there for a while and when tried to use it last night... that was flat too. Fat lot of use that was!

Have half a tooth left as it cracked some point in the first week of this year as coughing constantly (chest infection) weakened it (had root canal on it 3 years ago) and cracked part fell out 3 weeks later.

Not enough tooth exposed for NHS treatment. Have been quoted £3050 for an implant with crown. Sod that! A new tooth over 4-5 sessions or 170 bottles of gin….. I’ll stick with the gin…

Would you consider kidnapping?

Sorry to hear that.

If you're in the market to spoil them, then i'd be willing to be adopted.

My wife dropped my phone in the sink the other day. Which means I have no sat nav. No problem, I'll print out maps from Google Maps like we did at the turn of the century. The printer ran out of ink. Can't order more ink because I can't order online without the banking app on my phone. Also, I got lost.

I got round to looking for ink for the printer. Found a set of cartridges for €58.84 with free delivery. Sent my wife a link to order them. She forwarded me the delivery confirmation - charged at €122.84 with an extra €3.90! Look at the link on my computer and it shows €58.84. Look at it on hers and it shows €122.84.

What the actual?
 
Just got a phone call asking for help as one of the neighbours house across the way has burst into flames! :eek:

We managed to get a couple of horses out of the stables and over to ours by the time the fire brigade turned up and got it under control. Seems they had an electric transformer box at end of their drive that the fire brigade have switched off (or something has happened to it) as now the whole hamlet is without power.

Not looking forward to my Nanan’s funeral. Obviously it’s the mourning side. But my cousin’s daughter wants this and that - OTT. Like applying make up on Nanan. She’s going to be cremated. My Nanan wasn’t one for make up. Can’t remember her wearing much make-up.

Then those vomit inducing ‘NAN’ flower arrangements.

I’m not getting involved in the funeral ‘politics’

Dad’s not happy. Hopefully mum, dad and myself can sneak off early

Was the makeup perhaps suggested for those that wanted to go and see her before the funeral?
I don't recall my mum asking the funeral directors to do anything special but they obviously would have put makeup on my dad because we wanted to see him. I am glad I did go because they did a wonderful job of making him look like he did before the cancer ravaged his body. Although I still have awful memories at least I can remember that the last time I saw him wasn't in pain etc. He looked like he was just sleeping :,(

...

In that constant state at the moment where I know I need to go to sleep but I end up getting distracted with either social media etc or reading :o
 
I’ve said it before but Who Wants To Be A Millionaire questions are so easy these days.

That said Clarkson thought Gosforth was in Leeds (!?!) rather than Newcastle but still correctly guessed that’s where the first Greggs was (£64k question!!!).

Totally agree. It’s been dumbed down quite severely.

The lady who won £125k, I got to £125k without needing a single lifeline. Like her, I was stumped on the Indian state question. But with 4 lifelines left I’d expect to get to £500k.

Yeah i was the same. Some i wasn't 100% of but would've been confident in my assumption.

I very rarely watch it but my mother in law had it on. Still laughing at the moron who thought tanner was a trick even though he went on to describe the process of Tanning the leather :D
