Back in 2004 I had to go to the dentist with a bad tooth. Being skint, it was the NHS one at the time. All said, the tooth to be extracted snapped which isn't that great. I been walking around with this dead root in since that time, which although isn't painful because the root is dead, is largely annoying and sometimes can get dirty and need antibiotics. The bottom line is it needs sorted, and I had no idea if it could be, without all sort of complications. Now it appears a tool has been in use for some time, which I was unaware the dentists have called a Luxator. It is like a knive that carves out the space between the root and the gum allowing easy extraction of broken tooth. Previously, I believe the proceedure would have been to cut a portion of the gum in order to get rid of the broken root... I do not think this tool has been around that long, perhaps years, I am uncertain, but very handy. Will need to check if the dentists here have them at some point soon. Made by a Swedish dentist incidentally.

Tonight I had an idea of how to get rid of a bad corn that has plauged me for years now due to working in steel toe boots most of the time... By using a tool known as a pencil grinder with a stone attachment on the lowest rpm, I made a significant improvement on par with the work I had privately done abroad at a chiropodist. The thing with corns is really they must be burned out completely, or they just come back as hard skin, but for now, this is much better.

Very sore eye just now, perhaps from running round on a scooter in the wind, hope this is better soon, sleeping is impossible...

Black faced ewes. Someone will be busy looking after these for a while... But not me...

Returned "home" this evening after a brief interlude with the landlady regarding pecuniary settlement for abode arrangements to find this nice example of Australian nature on the wall. I'm guessing it is probably dangerous. Tried killing it, but it ran off, very evasive and alert. If you don't get any more updates, it's likely i'm dead, no, really.

I was thinking recently about intelligence regarding scores on tests such as the IQ etc. A thing that makes me wonder slightly, and almost contributes why I never bothered persuing a University based education, is that the average Uni teachers intelligence level is around IQ 125 and when I sat a Mensa test years ago scored 142, so this made me wonder what exactly the benefit would be from spending years supposedly learning from a perhaps less mentaly able human.
