      Went over to the cemetery with flowers for Mum and called in to see my brother..who is getting more confused each time I see him, such a cruel disease!!:sad:


      Hubs is now BBQing some chicken drumsticks, which we will have with some garlic mayo (the only mayo I will eat) and a salad.

        Yes it was really enjoyable :dbgrtmb:.

        The live broadcast started 30 mins before the performance - so that everyone can get their IT working. A guy introduced the live broadcast - people from all over the world were looking in - including from China and Canada. He said that if the live broadcast goes down, then the performance will be paused until the broadcast is up and running again.

        This is not just a bloke sitting in the audience with a streaming camera - it's all done professionally with multiple cameras and high end audio.

        All you need is to download the TicketCo app. and you can see it on virtually any device. We go for the old Fire TV using the projector and bluetooth speakers - IMHO it's better than sitting in the audience - or indeed in the cinema - as you can have a cuppa :coffee: and munch on a plate of rich tea.

            This morning went to the dentist for the 6 month check up, had to tell him that I was having problems with one of my back teeth. Years ago it had broken and was built back up and had a cap put on. I was slowly losing the gum around it and now it had become loose and the rest of the gum had a infection even though I keep good dental hygiene. So not doing much today still waiting for the injection to wear off so can't eat very well.

                    Oh...at least it's gone now. I had an iffy one at the back removed last time I went..no point trying to hang on to them if they are potentially going to cause more issues at our age. I just said ' whip it out' :heehee:.

                    You just need to keep a little plug in place for an hour or two and not drink anything hot , that's all .

                      Thanks @Upsydaisy yes the dentist said that it's no use in trying to keep it because it might cause problems later.
                      I have some instructions and didn't say anything about hot drinks in the first few hours. All the numbness has gone now just in time to eat my dinner at 3pm. Got to take painkillers but not aspirin and tomorrow do salt mouth washes after eating for 2 weeks.
