    Default Sign Of The Times

    Paid a visit to the Dentist today, nothing unusual in that.
    Observed a new sign in the waiting room "anyone visiting the Dentist who weighs over twenty stones or 134kg, please inform Dentist before treatment starts. Our Dental Chairs are only designed for a maximum weight of 20 stones".

    One wonders what happens to those over 20 stone patients. Possibly laid on the floor with a knee on the chest to hold them in position.

    Hi Chris.
    They might find it easier to access the teeth through the back passage, save going through the doors .

    That explains why so many here in Oz no longer go to the Dentist.
    According to reports we have the largest number of obese persons outside of USA.

    Thankfully I am only 88 kilo and still have most of my teeth, mainly in a little box.
    promised my mother many years ago I would still have all my own teeth at the end.
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    Life is too short to blend in.
