Been up the hospital to have a chat about the root. Defo a hospital job and will be knocked out while they cut a hole in my jaw to fish out the root. Pre-op check is June and need to fit in a CT scan as well. Not sure when the op is.

Adverts using classic tunes that shouldn't be messed about with. The latest style is a girl singing the song slowly in a slightly husky voice. This isn't the first of its kind. Its an angry song, not a soppy car advert song

Bugger me with a bent aubergine, this is tender! That's one slice. Clean cut in an instant.

You can see the straight edge where the knife went through.

Ever since then I've tried to allow for them trying to preempt the gap and allow for the lag.
