Title: Dental Appointments.
Post by: Roger Kettle on March 04, 2011, 08:13:31 PM: I had a check-up at the dentist's today. Everything was okay so I was asked to make another appointment for around six months time with the secretary. She tapped at the computer for a few seconds and then asked " How's Friday the Fourth of November at four o' clock?" Now, all I wanted to say was "I have no *!*!*!* idea. I might have a cold. The DENTIST might have a cold! I might be dead! The DENTIST might be dead! Maybe dentistry will have been declared an illegal medical practice, staffed by over-charging charlatans! Maybe the world will have ended!"
What I actually said was "That's fine".

You can have the 5pm - without novocaine.

Post by: Roger Kettle on March 04, 2011, 09:47:35 PM: Ah, but I was asked to make an appointment for AROUND six months time and November 4th was the first available.
I have no idea why I felt this was necessary to point out.
I'm going to bed now.

I was really hoping, nay, praying we might get through this thread without any mention of 2:30. But I never expected it of you, Diane. I'm sorry - I can't hide my shock and profound disappointment.

:o :( < ---- see?

Perhaps it's because you're all a bit long in the tooth.

Post by: Jerry Attrick on March 06, 2011, 07:45:36 PM: Favourite dentist joke:-
Dentist (about to give patient an injection):- 'Don't worry this little prick won't hurt you'.
Patient;- 'Well you did the last time I was here!'

Can see what one's writing on the wall, but not what the other one's saying - spill! I assume it's something derogatory about either Mince or Dr Who?

Post by: Diane CBPFC on March 08, 2011, 08:07:44 PM: I had to take my son in to the dentist today as he got a crack in his tooth in a basketball bashing.

I heard our dentist has sold up and retired but he was still there. He said he only retired for the one week.
