Squeeze From The Top Or The Bottom?
How do you squeeze your toothpaste tube? Not so easy with the plastic tubes from the bottom!
And I always buy two types of toothpaste, and have five different toothbrushes. White toothpaste is wonderful for tackling stains on clothes, with an old toothbrush. Other products for removing stains are soap or Fairy Liquid, plus salt. Blue or striped toothpaste tastes nice.
I've had some terrible dentists, too. The worst was in Kensington in London, an Australian who split my tooth in two. The other was in Italy, who diagnosed a toothache as une raffradore (a cold in the tooth).
My dentist in London laughed his head off at that explanation. The dentist in Kusedesi in Turkey was good, but I had a filling sitting in a wooden chair, no wonderful couch that went up and down with a reclining back. I was quite shocked. At least I saw a dentist.
My dentist here is a very nice guy, but he isn’t the best dentist in the world. Dentists are hard to find.
I never have an anaesthetic. I don’t feel great with them. And it’s usually over quickly without feeling groggy, much better. Pain is short, so no real problem.
Can’t say it’s a job that I would like, looking into people’s mouths. What a horror story!
A smile is an asset, especially with lovely teeth.

Something In The Mail For You
Are letters outdated? Do you write letters or send a card or email instead?
As a teen, I waited with anticipation to hear from boyfriends, and letters were fun!!!
Long-distance romance by letter led to so much more!
Selfie suffices these days for teens. Reading suffices on Amazon, according to two teens who considered that reading and writing.
Has the art of letter writing waned? These days I receive emails, and mainly bills or legalise by post.
There are many types of letters one can receive. I once corresponded with a friend who went to prison.
Letters were rationed in number to my friend in prison. Letters can be a lifeline.
The queues are still long in post offices these days, and stamps and registered mail are expensive. Letters abroad are all airmail, living on an island, and take anything up to two weeks to arrive at foreign destinations.
It’s still heart-warming to receive a nice letter. I pride myself on beautiful writing in Roman round hand.
My mother was annoyed that I spent a whole day a week writing.
She complained what sort of job could I get?
Theres always grave stones ducky, she was enraged!
Post your ideas on letterwriting, gifs, memes, post office, mail delivery, and your memories of letters.
Do you write letters of complaint?
Poems, music.
Chat with friends or write a mini letter to someone here.
Most of all, enjoy.

Draw The Line
This era is classified as the Latter Day of the Law.
There are similar prophecies in the Bible.
There are red moons and blue moons in the sky. There will be two suns.
We will not be able to tell truth from lies. The weather will be extreme and out of kilter.
There will be corruption, wars, famine, and disease. The rivers, land, and seas will be polluted, and food will not provide nutrition. (Major writings of Nichiren)12 C.
Already, we are seeing governments topple, ruthless dictators, and protestors being murdered.
We experienced lockdowns due to disease…Covid. There are wars and weapons of mass destruction.
Do we fully trust the use of technology? There are benefits, but do these outweigh the negatives?
The news here appears to be doom and gloom.
Recently, I was making a report when someone outside the police station in the town square was committing a robbery, brandishing a large knife. A guy came to the door, but his report was ignored. Our police are armed, but not one moved to apprehend
I risked my life leaving and spoke to the guy who had banged on the door, he tried to raise a report. He was shocked. 45 minutes later, the three police members came out to look for the robber who had, of course, disappeared, with not even a description.
One of our banks and some of its clients were hacked. We are warned…there are scam phone calls, so never answer your phone with a YES this may commit you to a payment of some sort.
Do you feel the police and courts are really doing a good job?
We are all from different places, so our views may differ.
We may even use humor to lighten matters, as below, but few are really confident about that.
Ah, they like dic taters!
Come and chat with friends, air your views, post memes, gifs, music, steer clear of politics and religion.
