A TRIP TO THE DENTIST

entry picture

A re-post from earlier days when dentists were open.

 

“You keep up with the brushing,

At least twice a day?

And have you done your flossin?”

“Wergly wergly werg”

 

“You keep good teeth“, he said to me

“But your gums recede.

How hard is your toothbrush?”

“Wergly wergly werg”

 

“You look well tanned for wintertime;

Have you been away?

“Wergly wergly wergly werg”

“Malta, do you say?”

 

“We went there two years ago

(Lower left 3, please)

Any problems bitin?”

“Wergly wergly werg”

 

“Wergly wergly wergly werg”

“That happens, I’m afraid;

Moreso in your later years.”

“Wergly wergly werg”

 

“So all OK I’m pleased to say”

“No treatment?”  “No, that’s that.

See you next in six months time;

Look forward to our chat”.

Good fun - thanks. Much to identify with. My own dentist based in
Upper Wimpole Street W1 is sending emails saying "open for business" and inviting me in for a hygienist hack job (at least that's my personal view of her actions) but i can happily delay any such
ministrations in present circumstances here in "disease city"!! I'll
stay with booking anything that might be considered "emergency"
for the foreseeable future, thank you very much. My wallet, like my
mouth, will remain closed to eager inspection and tampering with its content at present. ?

Made me laugh out loud, John! Your dentist could moonlight as an interpreter ...

Excellent , reality is always much worse than we think. I always think of the Rolling Stones with their perfect nashers, working just to pay off the bills. Onomatopeia exemplified.
