Forgive my ignorance but...

Like Glamma I've been to visit the dentist this week - and also to visit the dental technician who's making my new crowns (Kerching, that'll be £700 please!!). I was very impressed with the technicians who took a great deal of trouble to exactly match my own tooth colour. It's a vanity purchase as I had the teeth done 20+ years ago and the work was shoddy, leaving me with ill matched crowns. One of them in particular is huge and sticks out and looks what it is: a badly made crown. I see it immediately on any photo in which I'm smiling and I do so want to have a nice smile for the wedding photo's; so I'll be paying up. (Through my gritted, but hopefully attractive, new teeth.)

Thanks! glass

nanaej got a pile of Easter eggs here GC are bored with them, quick catch

just read these posts and now i really want some chocolate..and I have none! Boo!

and if they have please may I have one?

Has anyone got any flakes in their freezer?

Good luck Glamma. Just remember what dentists used to be like and be glad! I've been unlucky with my teeth but now have such a great dentist and NHS too.

I think I will need choclocating up at the week-end as to-day (in 20mins) I am off to dentist for repair od bridging so I should be back to normal by Thurs/Fri I hope so all the evidence will be removed.

Glamma you obviously don't need it, can I come round?

Correction: they would never reach the cupboard or the freezer.

glamma well done for keeping them there. In my house they wouldn't last in the cupboard or freezer.

I just had a peek in my freezer and found Chocolate Gateux,chocolate ice cream,in my store cupboard are chocolate drops for the top of cupcakes for the DGCs and chocolate icing,Terrys chocolate orange and bar of Cadburys fruit and nut.I think I shall have to have a serious think about all the choccy stuff in my house from now on

That is a lot of chocolate! A large shopping bag full...

Glamma, most chocolate does that to me but not Nestle, won't touch any of their products because, in my opinion, they are not ethical.

glamma Yay!

Wow 10kg,just think how much space that would take up in my fridge,the chocolate that I buy is very very special !! it can shout from inside the fridge door "eat me" all by it's self.

Yes please absent. Have you also got some fantastic means of losing the extra weight?

AlisonMA I'm not keen on chocolate and rarely eat it, so you can have my 10 kg if you like.

Well I like that meal! Yesterday at the Eden Project I read that in the UK we eat 10kg of chocolate a year. I haven't had all of mine yet so must buck up and get on with it. After all if the EP says it it must be right! I feel it is my duty to help those poor people who grow it.

Please don't talk about over-eating - I have had to get rid of everything that won't keep in the fridge for a week, so I have had big bowl of salad and two yoghurts. My sister always has a lovely cooked dinner waiting for me when I arrive but my flight is not until 5 p.m. your time and I will have to pick up a hire car, so at least I won't be having dinner until about 8 p.m. I feel bloated - I have got out of the habit of big meals.

Of course, having been dull all weekend, it is now bright sunshine here - I am about to look at the forecast for Manchester. Gr................

That sounds like a very healthy lunch to me, absent, except perhaps for the gorging bit. Doesn't do to overeat you know!

mgwnzy It doesn't really mean anything in particular It's just a jokey way to make a point. For example, someone might post something such as "I'm off now to gorge on smoked salmon and cream cheese sandwiches followed by chocolate mousse and whipped cream eat a healthy lunch." It's a kind of written version of saying something tongue in cheek.

It just means we're arsing around! If you want to cross something through put two dashes immediately before and immediately after what you want crossed out!
