Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

I follow back if you're interested....
This is my insta for my jewellery making progress should anyone be interested. It'll also mean I'll stop spamming you so much on here with my shinies 🫶https://www.instagram.com/tarnjewels/
It's so interesting that my job as a senior lecturer and researcher in forensic psychology was considered redundant 12 months ago.
Just catching up on this and OMG it's a must watch! Bonus for geriatric millennials is you will love the casting, soundtrack and easter eggs. I'll say no more cos #spoilers 😁
Needed but couldn't afford:
Filling: £258
Scale and polish: £80
So if you hear anyone saying they're thinking of voting Reform (who will privatise ALL our health services), just remind them how expensive teeth are. How much do you think surgery would cost...?
Nearly £300 to have a wisdom tooth pulled. Had to pay private cos my usual dentist only have 1 p/t dentist.
Appt fee: £87
X-rays x 2: £40
Extraction: £158
It's a very rare complication of wisdom tooth extraction, but it can perforate your eardrum due to pressure on the jaw, and proximity to nerves.

How do I know this...?
