Conkers Galore

This afternoon I tool my son to find some conkers. I took a set of drain-cleaning rods to hook them out of the trees. Trouble is, the rods are a bit flexible so I could only get about 15 feet high before they started sagging...
Anyway, after about an hour, we managed the grand total of 8 conkers.

Pearly whites

I had to go to the dentist this morning to have my teeth cleaned. I've not been for a while so he froze one side of my face and then gave me the treatment. Now I'm sitting here with a numb left side of my face, feeling like a stroke victim.
Worst of all is that I can't bottle out of the next session because I now have half a set of nice white teeth.
