Toothless

 

What a good feeling, not having pain in the tooth!

The very good dentist quickly explained all, drilled and cut and removed almost painlessly the offender.  How glad was I!

Having eaten little for a week I am now attempting to make up for what I missed.  Sadly, this means rising early tomorrow and visiting Sainsburys before the crowds get in.  I could do without this.  However, that is where the food is stored, just behind very large price tags that provide huge benefits for shareholders and CEOs.  

How nice not to have that pain.

How do people survive on real pain I wonder?   Over the counter drugs do not always alleviate pain, and if they do it does not last.  How lucky and grateful I am today!

Of course, the wood pigeons gathered up in the trees preening themselves after eating have cared little.  All day they have sat there soaking up what sunshine there is, all puffed up to keep in the heat.

I cannot understand how they survive when it snows.

 Keir has stated that he is fully behind the Chancellor Rachel Reeves.  This has resulted in the 'Daily Star,' the paper that contested a Lettuce against Liz Truss, to offer up another lettuce to see if she can outdo Liz and beat the vegetable.   By vegetable I mean lettuce, not Keir.  Rachels new idea is to cut benefits for the disabled!  What an idea, something that has been going on for 14 years is to be tried again.  I also have an idea, keep the benefits and TAX THE RICH!

Nicola separating from her husband has all the wags talking.  Is this to avoid going to jail along with him, or is she going to jail?  Is this because she is a lesbian as many have thought and she is moving in with that story writer in Kirkcaldy?  Will she be letting go of her place in Holyrood (NO!) and should she be put on trial for her offences (YES!).  

We wait and see.
