Sorry Dennis, as I said, full beach day over at Mandraki. Back to town for just after 5 but I presumed you would have left by then. Hope you enjoyed Salt & Pepper.
Kathos, thanks for info re Memorial Service.

I sat at home with my tin of Carnation milk and nobody turned up here either Dennis - so I just made some tablet with it. It tasted really good, but I don't think my dentist would be too happy.

Well I wouldn't care about my dentist. A week ago I had just three teeth if you include the crowned one. But on the night before we left to come here, one of them broke off, so I'm effectively down to two including the crown. Very badly assisted by top and bottom sets of plastic teeth - they don't fit (when I cough or sneeze they fall out if I don't grab them quick and they usually rattle and jump about when I talk. And they are blunt and don't come together at a biting point, so they don't eat stuff). Over the past eight or so years of diminishing numbers, I started thinking plastic ones would be the ideal solution, y'know, easy clean, no more dreaded fillings and injections, just maybe drop them through the dentist's letterbox every now and again. Huh! What a fool I was. I used to really enjoy eating, now I think I may simply change to a liquid diet (no, not beer, soup and custard).

As they say - you don't miss things 'till they're gone. I remember, in my student days in Glasgow, I was in a pub with my flat mate who had a loose crown. Unfortunately, listening to a really filthy joke, he laughed and coughed at the same time, sending his crown shooting out of his mouth and across the crowded pub. I'll never forget the sight of around 50 drinkers down on their hands and knees looking for his tooth. A couple of new arrivals took one look in the pub and did a hasty about turn. I can only guess at what they thought was going on. Fortunately we got away with only buying the finder a pint, rather than everyone in the pub.
Keep up your fascinating reports.
Bob
