This is frightening. You know what trying to type this is not far off impossible. Can hardly see shit. Got to 40 yrs of age without needing glasses - or so I thought. Was chipping playstations a great deal at the time (cough) and I was struggling with the soldering connections. They were pretty small. They were damn small for sure. It never entered my head that I might need glasses though. Now at 50 - and my glasses are downstairs with my cat - Franky - that I was just molesting - I can hardly see anything. Can't ever see giving into age but hell your eyesight kind of brings it home to you. Age sux!

Aye. You know you're old when your teeth start going. I'm almost 36 (jeez that number even looks old as I'm typing it).

I'm having my wisdom teeth out in 3 weeks' time. I've insisted on a general anasthetic, although my dentist reckons a local's fine ! WTF ? 4 x impacted wisdoms pulled out under a local ?!? Think I'll prolly go for the general. At least if I have a local I can drive myself there and back. I'm told you shouldn't drive back after a general, although not sure if thats just a load of guff.

Get someone else to do the driving. You never know. That is some major face pulling - big time. Don't want to upset you too much but those teeth just don't want to come out. Take it easy after. Bask in the attention. Also be careful. Sod driving as if you ain't undergone anything. Get help!

OK. I'll get someone to drive me back and pre-order the ice cream in :D

Do they really have to pull them that hard ? Can't they just cut the gum open down to the jaw bone, snip the nerve, and lightly encourage them out with tweezers or a piece of cheese ?

Sorry, but that still sounds painful to me!

Ah well. Gotta have them out. If not, the dentist says they'll burrow their way down to my lungs and set up a Barbershop Quartet in my spleen.

Watch out Lamp, new NHS rules mean they can strap you down, inject a mild paralysis drug and play lolly pop with their schlong and your mouth!

Good luck on that tho Lamp, hope you get mint ice cream!

Also Flint, you're not wearing your glasses with the cat in the hope she'll look like Shitara?
