FLASHING THE GNASHER & A 'MERRYWEATHER' DAMSON TREE..

She has got her tooth! And very comfy it is too! 

She was early for her appointment so chewed the 'fat' with Karen for a few minutes before going into the dental surgery.

Smiley, clever Dentist greeted her and went about being as fussy as usual to make sure that it fitted perfectly and he took a little bit off as it was a minute fraction too high.

He taught her how to put it in and to take it out, gave strict instructions on how to take care of it, gave her the wrapped up models of her upper and lower jaws and she was out in less twenty minutes.

Only to find, that she had left her wallet behind, sigh, no cash or Debit card meant no purchases from the market, bigger sigh, so she had to come home.

The fake tooth is remarkable, quite remarkable. She has just peered at it in the bathroom mirror with its' bright light and realised, that in fact, she was looking at the wrong tooth! That's how good it is.

A call to Thompson & Morgan, who are a well renowned horticultural supplier, has confirmed that they have stock of Damson trees and will be shipping them in April, how much? 

Yippee, she was given a voucher for this company last summer by an old gardening client who lives in Essex and it covers the cost of a 'Merryweather' Damson who will come to live with us and she knows just the spot for this pretty little Miss.

Out she goes again, with her wallet this time, first to the Library to change four books, then down to Tooting Broadway, I know she does go to some weird and wonderful places, does she not!

It is a dull and very overcast day here, a sweater and warm jacket day, old sun switched his torch on for a few minutes at about noon but he is now gadding about elsewhere.

But it would be good if we could, dare I say it, have a few drops of rain! For the wind has been strong and with the hot sun we have experienced over the past ten days, our top soil is now as dry as an old bone.

I will go back to have my doze on door pole and I will report any excitement when she returns later this afternoon.

But before we go, we need to tell you that a new B&B called 'The French House', Dallas, Texas is proving to be a BIG hit with clever travellers, as they realise that it is incredibly convenient for both DFW and Love Field, the two local airports.

FlapFlap.. Dear Readers.. please enjoy your day.
