Dentist

Thinking about going to the dentist brings me out in a cold sweat hence my very infrequent visits. Very infrequent. Anyway I took out dental cover last year by way of encouragement and got a recommendation from a colleague for a private practice near where I live. Finally plucked up courage to book an appointment and can happily report that despite palpitations it went ok and I only need one filling - my first in 17 years which considering the neglect is a testament to my strong teeth and religious cleaning!
The bonus is I've landed a cute dentist (don't tell Mosh) so I've got an added incentive to go back. He does have a name akin to a Fast Show sketch character though: Dino Birkenstock. I wonder if he's related to the shoe family....
