Hi All From Seamus
Hi Seamus-nice pic of you and your niece.
The Lounge is probably the best place for any jokes, songs etc--anything that will not fit into any category goes in here.
I could do with a joke or 2 at the moment-just been to the dentist-had 2 back teeth out---one top and one bottom--oh hang on--here's a joke coming---the PRICE !!!!!! £124.00
But even funnier--I took my little dog Chloe to the vets , to have her teeth cleaned last month---how much---it was the very same £124.00 [almost]

Hi Marian ,Many thanks for your help with my photo,hope your keeping well, was looking at your photo today with that big snake, i am not afraid of anything ,except those slipperey guys!, your sure brave.
Sorry ,told a wee porkie their,thanks to M44, im not to keen on dentists.
Thankfully i dont have any trouble anymore with my teeth, i dont have any! of my own,
but a nice set of falsies,,that are like the stars at night,thats when they come out.
Mariana, you sure have had an expensive time with the Vet and Dentist, and that sure is not funny for you,but i bet those Professionals are laughing all the way to the bank.
I am still trying to find my way into the areas of the scrapbook, it was that genius Murph that did it for me, wish he was my neighbour,i just clicked on to an address and bingo , got there. Like magic.
A wee joke, to give you a giggle,
Man arrives home from the Pub, greets his Wife and says,
"You wont beleive it ,but our milkman is down the Pub, and is boasting that he has had his way with every Woman on our Street, all except one,
"His Wife replys , I bet its the posh one down in 22!
Keep Smiling.

Oh Gosh, Marian, so sorry about that!
I know a joke about dentists, I hope this makes you feel better..
One day a man walks into a dentist's office and asks how much it will cost to extract wisdom teeth.
"£124," the dentist says.
"HOW MUCH!!? That's a ridiculous amount," the man says. "Isn't there a cheaper way?"
"Well," the dentist says, "if you don't use an anaesthetic, I can knock it down to £60."
"HOW MUCH!!!? That's still too expensive," the man says. "I'm not paying that"
"Okay," says the dentist. "If I save on anesthesia and simply rip the teeth out with a pair of pliers, I could get away with charging 20 quid. But there'll be blood everywhere"
"HOW MUCH!!!??," moans the man, "it's still too much."
"Hmm," says the dentist, scratching his head. "The only other way would be to let one of my students do it for the experience, with a hammer & chisel. Let's call it 10 quid."
"Marvelous," says the man, "book the Mrs in for next Tuesday!"

Thanks guys--you both made me feel better.
Paul--the NHS is changing---it is near impossible to find an NHS dentist these days---many--including mine, have changed over to private-so there is not a lot of choice, I'm afraid. And to be quite honest, I thought it was going to be more.
My sister had to buy new glasses earlier this year, and even though she has Diabetes and Glaucoma, she still had to pay nearly £800.00 for 3 pairs of glasses--which included re-using 2 of her own frames and a "free" pair---not funny when you are living on your own. She needs 3--one for everyday, one for reading, and one for working at the computer.

MATT ON THE RADIO TODAY & TEETHING PROBLEMS.
Hi Folks,
Nice to hear Matt singing on radio 2 this morning ,From Russia With Love,
Terry Wogan is a big fan ,and often plays Matts songs. Ilike to listen to Terry most mornings his banter is good, and he plays a lot of 60s/70s stuff.
I think i also heard Matt singing in the background on Emmerdale last night.
Enjoyed your joke Gray, and know all about Students, around the age of 24, i had the last 12 teeth removed at the Dental Hospital in Dublin.Over the years i had endured a lot of discomfort ,and pain,and was losing them gradually. I was knocked out with aneasthetic, and when i came round i thought i had been in the ring with Sonny Liston.I later learned that it was a Student who had done the extraction.He made a right mess of my gums, and i have in my possesion a letter of apoligy from the top Surgeon
at that institution. BUT THEIRS MORE.
About 20 years ago ,after having a bit of luck on the nags, i decided to treat myself to a brand new set,and went to sse a good Dentist a pal advised.
The Dentist examined my gums,and took an xray, and i was "gobsmacked" when he pointed to what he described as an unperturbed tooth ,which required me to be admitted to Stoke Mandeville Hospital, in Aylesbury,for Dental Surgery.
Later, all healed again,the Dentist done me proud and made a beautiful new set for me. Touch wood, ive not had any problems since, but i can appreciate its not pleasent for anyone with dental problems.
TAKE CARE FOLKS.

CHILDREN IN NEED.
Watched the whole nights Children in Need programme.Really enjoyed it,and delighted some of my country folk were envolved. ,Boyzone,Terry Wogan, Colin Farrell, and the lovely Enya.
The group of tenors,El Divo,sang "ThePower Of Love",and it brought back memories to me.I was employed at CBS/SONY plant in Aylesbury ,Bucks,from 1978 to 1992,and we had many visits from the artists we had on our books.I had an nice kiss and cuddle from Jennifer Rush who had a big hit with the above song, on her visit.
We also had visits from,Shaky Stevens,Adam Ant, CultureClub,and on an open day,played football ,CBS against Shaky and his Roadies. I also met and had a cuddle from Bonnie Tyler.
Back in the early 70s,i worked at a cinema in Aylesbury as a trainee projectionest and they used to have live stage shows their once a month,
the Grenada.While their, i met Tommy Steele,,Billy Fury,Marty Wilde,
Johny Kid and the pirates,Emile Ford,Terry Dene, and Lonnee Donegan.
I also saw John Leyton twice in the same day, in a movie,and live.He was in the film" THE GREAT ESCAPE," at the ODION in the afternoon and live ,on stage at the Grenada the evening.I also met Alvin Stardust,who was also on at the grenada,but not sure of thedates.
Scuse me spellin,beano and dandy education.
best wishs

Gee Whiz Seamus, i've just read your posting regarding your horrendous experiences in the dentists chair!
A work colleague of mine has just gone off sick with a bad back - through sitting it the dentisit chair whilst he rived about in her mouth for two hours - honest, no joke!
Has anyone seen the film Castaway with Tom Hanks?
Remember the scene where he removes one of his own teeth with the help of an ice skate blade and a big rock?
Maybe thats the way to do it!

DENTISTS CHAIR.
Hi Gray, Thanks for your reply. I mentioned about being gobsmacked with what my Dentist alerted me to,and that seems very appropiate, ha!
Thinking back,i guess i was "gobsmacked" quite a few times with my dental experiences.
Dont think i saw the movie re Tom Hank, but i do remember one time when i attempted to try a bit of D.I.Y on a very painful tooth, it was an August Bank Holiday,back in the 60s,and my Gran had made a lovely steak dinner for herself and i. Well i bit into a piece of steak jarred a back tooth,and was in agony,i could not get hold of a Dentist, so i got hold of screwdriver ,and wedged it between the bad tooth and a good one,and knocked the driver sideways,and as the bad tooth was a bit loose, thought it would pop out, but no, it did not budge,instead the pain seemed to increase, which resulted in me running like a madman a mile to the nearest Hospital, where i pleaded for a Dentist to remove it.
After what seemed like ages, a Dentist appeared and brought me to his treatment room and extracted the offender.
Would you beleive, as soon as i sat in the chair,the pain went,and he took out the tooth in seconds.
I can chuckle about it all now,but it was not funny at the time.

MARATHON MAN
Hi Gray
Sorry dont think i saw Marathon Man,but beleive me , i was not brave, i cant stand pain,and was only trying, in my own tradational style, to put the pain to bed.

Hope your over the worst of your recent experience,and back to your true form,I feel your a lot like me,take it on the chin and bounce back!
Keep strong you youngsters,
Love Seamus &Babs
