Well I have had the worst Christmas ever, some time ago Dusak posted that he had been to the dentist, I too had a niggling tooth ache and swore that I would go to the dentist. After a few pain killers it went away and me being the greatest coward as far as dentist are concerned put it off.
Needless to say I ended up with an abscess on my tooth which was very painful. My Christmas lunch consisted of a poached egg with soft bread dipped in the yolk.
I did go to the dentist but there was nothing he could do till the abscess had cleared. Well Friday off I went, if anyone had taken my blood pressure when I got to the top of his stairs they would have rushed me into hospital. Why so fearful I don't know, Dr. Ferris is the kindest most gentle man I have ever met. I have been to him before and knew that but still.
Well now am well and fighting fit once more and am out tonight for a nice meal with friends but it has taught me a lesson, I hope, my New Years resolution is no more procrastinating.

I was really sick over Christmas and still not right (man flu), so missed going to stop at my friends and my brother

Christmas??

Damn.....missed it again!

Can someone remind me next year.... give me a couple of weeks' notice and a reminder the day before....so I don't miss it again

There has been a lot of people getting sick with the Flu this Christmas, we were warned earlier on that this years outbreak of Winter Flu would be a bad one and so far they seem to be correct. It seems that most people you talk to have had a member of their family quite ill with it, luckily I have escaped it so far, whether that is a result of having had the Flu jab earlier this year remains to be seen.

Abstinence makes the abscess abhorrent.
