Drove all the way to the doctor's and back with Radio 2 on without hearing 'Last Christmas'. Walked in the door, Mr Moomin was scrolling random vids on his tablet, and boom, I'm out. Only heard the first note but it was enough. At least now I can listen to my Xmas playlist in safety 🤣

Got up this morning to find my Agatha Christie bookshelf had collapsed in the night. The amount of books on there hasn't changed in years, so I can only blame the extra weight of the two Christmas cards (in envelopes) that I stashed on there because they arrived too early 😂

I really hate being asked to rate my pain on a scale of 1-10. I don't know how your pain scale works!
My 7 could mean "Please take the arm, I can't take any more", while the doctor might be thinking "Only 7? She can walk that off".
Why not just ask me "how is this pain affecting you?" 🙄

A decade of cuts has left a £1.5 billion NHS dentistry funding gap. Current funding is only enough for half the population to get an NHS dentist - and the rest, like Lizzie, Monica and Marquita, are left to suffer.

Smells like someone has been burning tyres out there. Nearly choked on it when I took the dogs out last night, and it's still going this morning 🤢.
