Tooth Trauma - round 2

October 28, 2009 8:24 PM

After the nothingness of yesterday (see, no post ma!) today is a bit more busy with plenty going on to keep me occupied for the majority of the day.

First up I am of to the Dentist to get the second part of my treatment done. Whilst they did some drilling and filing of the tooth the last time, this appointment was far more hardcore and 40 minutes of invasive, reticulated jaw inducing procedures I was safely out of the dentist chair and pursuing yet another appointment for next week to see if they can fill the tooth provided the infection has cleared up.

Numb face and jaw intact I then nip back home to let Rupert out for a pee and then head straight on out again down to Swindon. Well, that was the plan, but half way there I got caught in roadworks and ended up being late to meet my dad from the train. Luckily though I managed to phone him and tell him to get a coffee and a newspaper and to make himself comfortable on the nearest park bench until I got there.

Eventually I got to the station and loaded Dad and his suit case up and we drove back home via the country route to avoid the traffic jam that had made me late.

Not much to fill the afternoon for me other than work while Dad also catches up on some paperwork and helps me with some copy for a website I need to start building.

Stew for tea (with dumplings, yum!) and an early night ensues - we have a lot of stuff to do tomorrow before I take Dad to Guildford so there will be little time for a late start.

Oh, and Martin had his interview in Reading today - hopefully it went well!
