I have spent the morning cleaning the apartment, and packing my case, it\’s a shame I have still got three days to wait! I should have kept my mouth shut, the same tooth, well, the one in the same place, has come adrift again, Marcela wanted to ring the Dentist, but there is no point,Continue reading “Damn Tooth!!”

Everything seemed to go smoothly this morning, and consequently we had everything doen in double quick time! I was at the dentist at 9.30am and had my plastic crowns removed, and replaced with semi permanent ones, the Specialist was not happy with the colour match, although they look great to me, so she is changingContinue reading “Another busy morning”

Started yesterday by ringing the Ministry of Immigration to see if my Residency Card was ready, to be told that due to a problem with the card Printers, there was a backlog, and it would be another two weeks! We then set off to Medellin and returned the Wedding Dress, and other bits, at leastContinue reading “Busy again!”

Saturday, I had my Dental appointment postponed until Tuesday, which was a saving grace, as we needed every minute of the day to do the last minute arrangements! Saturday evening and after Marcela and Maria Elena had supervised my haircut at the hairdressers… I returned to the apartment alone, whilst Marcela stayed with her MotherContinue reading “Wedding Day!”

Spent another three hours at the Dentist yesterday, and two more today, I am having a problem with one of the temporary Crowns, it keeps coming off, Wedding photos maybe a re-enactment of Count Dracula!! I have now been given my own glue supply… Not a lot to report, we are getting things organised forContinue reading “Pre Wedding Arrangements”

Yesterday, I went to the Dentist early, and was there for nearly four hours, the first Dentist prepared and fitted two temporary crowns, to replace my top front teeth, they looked lovely, then I was in with Magnolia, for a cleaning session, which she extended to today, but I left, with my mouth feeling slightlyContinue reading “Ups and Downs!”

This morning was Dental appointments for both of us, I went first and saw a Specialist I had never seen before,  he seemed to know what he was doing, and he was another who was less than impressed with the work done in Cadiar. Don\’t ask me what he did, I have no idea , butContinue reading “Oh Dear!!”

Yesterday, we had Sebastian for the day, as Sandra was still in the Clinic, and his Father at work, he was a handfull, and in one of those, I\’ll see how far I can push you, moods. We took him out for lunch, did some shopping, then returned home. We had to be in MedellinContinue reading “Final Wedding Dress Fitting!”

I had a fairly relaxed morning, we couldn\’t go anywhere, because Marcela had a meeting in the city just after midday, then visiting a Client, before visiting her Sister. So when Marcela left here, I packed up, and went off for a walk. As I sure sure that many of you will know, the bestContinue reading “Another walk!”

It has certainly been an enlightening day, and one that anyone still living in Cadiar should learn from!!! I had my first appointment with a Dentist here, this morning, just for a check up and a clean… or so I thought.I had been told that Dentists in Colombia took a lot of beating, when itContinue reading “Do not go to the Dentist in Cadiar!!”
