One down, one to go

Had the first of two appointments to fix my teeth this morning, putting a plug into the broken-off bit of a molar. Quite painless and easy, took only a quarter-hour or so. Whew. I shall now go back to bed for an hour, until the anaesthetic wears off, then to the office.

May your tribulations today be as light as this, dear readers.

In other news the storm on the weekend nearly cost 140 lives, as the wingtip of an airplane landing in Hamburg was driven into the runway by a sudden sidewind. Watch the film and shudder. [Updated] and then look at this photo and gasp. That was a very damned close call.
