Starmer's vision quest

4 month wait to go private, and a £4k bill, or 6 on the NHS (which we already pay for and she's on).
But yeah, foreigners are bad. Stands to reason, innit?

Not sure where you are based, but at Guys and St Thomas they have a dental school. You can sign up to be a willing case study - they don't do the actual treatment, that's done by a Consultant - they just get to watch and do the assessment.

Newcastle.

There's a dental school here too.

Might be worth a punt then - just for the free dentistry :-)

We've looked at it as an option. It isn't available.

Aye, it's probably an avenue well explored...

I have used the dental hospital, for “emergency” treatment. It is a number of years ago now. Not the sort of experience which could be described as pleasant, but, not as unpleasant as I had anticipated.

Mutilated Butchery would be a quality band name.

Here's a fun quiz for Saturday morning, which of the following is not a real band?

A) Crowbar Abortion
B) Cattle Decapitation
C) Scrofulous Gut
D) Impaled Nazarene

That's a trick question. The correct answer is Exploded Haemorrhoid.

Ahh yes, Diana Ross with the Exploded Haemorrhoid.

Has a certain ring to it...

 

[AndyRM]

I can assure you that no trickery is involved. Well, kind of.

The answer is C. My granddad came up with that as a joke after we'd been discussing music one day.

I thought Scrofulous Gut was a character from Return of the Jedi.

That's canon now.

Didn't they play a session on the John Peel Show?

Oh dear.

The SNP have lost confidence in the Speaker.

Earth shattering stuff

 

[winjim]

Well my chances of voting Labour have gone from slim to non existent.

Saw Starmer described as 'a balloon on a stick with a face drawn on it' which is accurate. I look at him in the same way I look at expanded polystyrene.
