Schuks Tshabalala

I am not always a fan of funny, but old Leon really does know how to be politically incorrect and make the most of it.

If he caught me out, I’d probably be insanely angry, but nonetheless this is funny.

I do however feel that it would take a South African to really “get it”.

If you haven’t seen it yet, take a chance and laugh at a little bit of South African humor.

Early morning at the Dentist

I managed to get an appointment for early this morning to get some work done on my tooth.

The dentist was pretty shocked when he saw what had happened and told me that I might lose the tooth, or need to go through some expensive implants if he could not save it.

He needed to cut some of my gum away to be able to see what was going on lower down and to determine if he would be able to put a crown on. Thankfully, he was able to do a great job and saved the tooth and put on a temporary crown in the interim after doing some core strengthening work to stabilise the foundation of the tooth.

I must admit at one point it was quite nerve wrecking experiencing what I can only describe as having the remains of my tooth broken and scratched out using surgical tools, although I am not totally sure what I was experiencing at the time as I didn’t want to ask.

I’ll need to go back in a few weeks time, to get the official crown done, but luckily it can all be sorted out while I am in the chair. It is good to know that the medical practitioners whose hands you put your health in are knowledgeable and organised to do the things that need to be done to keep you going.

Look after your teeth

Amelia and I were feeling like having something to eat so I prepared us some two minute noodles, tuna and sweetcorn.

While eating this seemingly soft food, I felt something hard in my mouth. After investigating I found out that almost half of one of teeth fell out or broke off. Fortunately for me I had already had a root canal done on the tooth, so I was not in pain, although my mouth was now seriously uncomfortable and I was pretty much upset about the matter.

I will need to get the tooth repaired soon, so that I don’t lose it altogether.

Hyunny the Hyundai

After the test drives, some internet research and some heavy decision making, I made up my mind and decided to go for the i30. I collected the car today and it is fantastic.

Amelia didn’t know that I was collecting the car today, so when I fetched her from work it was a total surprise.

I had some CDs ready and immediately hit the road and drove through to Knysna.

Amelia and I decided to stop at the waterfront and had some awesome pizza, coffee and tiramisu at Caffe Mario. We then took an easy drive back to George.

Hyundai i30

After trying out the i10 and i20 Amelia and I saw the i30, which looked like far more of a car. We did some enquiries on Saturday but did not have enough time to do a test drive, so I decided to go for one today.

When getting into the i30, you feel absorbed into it’s comfort and sporting feel. It is a superb drive and feels as if it has got performance wanting to pop out of every particle.

This one has definitely caught my attention.
