I'd rather  covert  to a liquid diet than pay that to the thieving sods, or employ somebody to chew my food first, before giving it to me :P :P :P

Dentists, like vets, certainly know how to charge.

We've just paid £1,000 for my wife to have her two upper front teeth crowned after she lost out to a spare rib at a barbecue.

Charity Shops...have they become a clearing house for people downsizing etc; ?
     I'm having a "clear it" session now today as I am considering my 2nd down size. My dustbin is reproaching me today.

I took a heavy bag of clothes, to our local Barnardo's shop, today. Gobsmacked!
 "Sorry, sweetheart. Can't take them, we're full. No floor space. No staff to process"...  :o ???


The local hospice shop, 3 doors away, was delighted. And called me, Sir.....  :D
