Are you clenching your teeth?Toothache.
Then when the dentist tells you he can't see anything wrong and to wait a week and see if it subsides. I hate the dentist experience so it's already been bothering me for two weeks.

People who won't take responsibility for their own actions . I often read about some young person who took ecstasy at some rave or other , and paid the ultimate price - death . These are presumably sufficiently adult people to be allowed out alone , and I never hear of anyone saying he held my son/ daughter up with a gun/ knife and forced her/ him to take it . And then the parents come in with she / he was a wonderful , handsome, cheerful, intelligent, hard working, studious , good looking person and the person who sold this drug murdered him/ her , and robbed them / us of our future . What happened to free choice and standing by the results of your own actions . ? I do appreciate that the parents must be very traumatised by it all - never having experienced such a thing, I cannot know how much , but surely ---- ? Is there not enough excitement already in these raves that they need to be drugged up as well ? Or am I just a grumpy old git who isn't "with it"?

But many taking risky "legal highs" are in their 20's, 30's & 40's.A good school friend of mine died at the age of just turned 17 from an ecstasy overdose. She had been at a rave and been massively pressured into taking it by the group she was with. She had never taken anything before other than a few alcopops. I believe she was afraid of being seen as not fitting in with the group she was with that night and desperately wanted to. Stupid? yes! If you want to know "how much" her father was "traumatised" by her death at the age of just turned 17? Enough to blow his brains out! You say " presumably sufficiently adult ", my daughter is 17, just about to turn 18 and I believe to be very well brought up and obviously taught about peer pressure, drugs drink etc, but so was my friend.
Edit to add- Not having a go, just sometimes kids ( and that is what a lot of them are ) find themselves in dodgy situations that most get out of by the skin of their teeth, but some don't.
I agree, the culture is changing beyond recognition.But many taking risky "legal highs" are in their 20's, 30's & 40's.
Every death is a tragedy. Some are a depressingly predictable waste of a life.
There is a lot going wrong in our culture IMHO.
Agreed. We don't need new laws, we need effective enforcement of the existing ones!I agree, the culture is changing beyond recognition.
Look at the recent panic in London, two men have an argument on a tube platform, sixteen people hurt in the panic, fleeing the incident! Hardly the “blitz’ spirit, stiff upper lip etc.
Think a lot of it has to do with the ‘nanny state’ we live in. Governments have gradually reduced the ability of people to take personal responsibility and have the courage of their own convictions.
With our laws, if it is not banned then it is legal, so legal highs must be OK, because if they were not, then they would be banned.
This follows on from stupid laws like the using a mobile phone while driving laws, there is no need for them, it is covered under driving without due care and attention.
Governments seem to think by passing new laws they are tackling the problem, they seem unable to grasp the fact that criminals do not follow the law, the only people affected by new laws and regulations are the law abiding population.
Maybe should have been 66,000 instead of 962016 figure may have been incorrectly recorded (big jump from previous test) or it's been clocked in the mean time.

What's wrong with that? If the repairs were done at the same garage the could quite easily have been exactly the same. It only had to go from test bay to repair bay and back. Most charge a full retest if you take it away but no extra if you leave it on the premises.Tha 2013 test makes interesting reading - he had all those things fixed and getting vehicle retested all on the same day and with only one extra mile on the clock.
