Thursday

Spent the morning editing and retyping my article about Jeremy Yates, then wasted hours inserting photos of his pictures. There are so many ways of doing it but I do it so rarely I have to relearn every time. Then I messed about trying to arrange my text round it with pretty indifferent results. I really should get a Desk Top Publishing programme, but then again I expect whoever publishes it (if one's ever that fortunate) would do all that anyway, wouldn't they? Phil? Anita?
This afternoon I had a tooth crowned, quick and painless so now I have a shining silver tooth to make up my full complement.
Incidentally, do you know that one NHS crown costs £177, but for the same price you can have any number of crowns, shame that I only needed one! The same goes for the simple £37 treatment, it's the same price whether it's one filling or dozens. The logic of this escapes me as the Dentist gets the same payment however much work he does, but it does make one understand why dentists are unwilling to take on new NHS patients.

Hi Pauline, Where do you get onto a national health dentist? anyway it seems that despite all your help last week my blog name is still kermitfrog, but at least your help was remembered and I was able to find the blog and typed up one of my old poems just to show something. I have so little time at present but I shall get back and type something else up. I like the dog
