My dental surgeon had this bit of wisdom when I told him how happy I was with my electric toothbrush and now I felt I had control over my dental hygene. He said: "the only control with electric toothbrushes is the on and off switch."

Sensible man. Nothing like a regular bristle brush and a little elbow grrease, not too heavily applied.

A street on our way to Lucy's hockey is Aviemore Drive. It is pronounced Ay-(as in hay)viemore Drive on the Satnav!

Just use a soft bristle and brush for 2 minutes, and before eating, as your teeth surface softens when you've eaten.

I never knew this, Anthony.

No Mark this voice control is just for changing your radio, CD or phone. I couldn't tell you what else it's meant to do if anything as I gave up after the first couple of days. It just doesn't understand my Scottish voice.

Is it a Japanese car, Angie?   :D :-*
No, I think it's a Indian company that makes it, Range Rover Sport, my first one only lasted me 2 months before it broke down and they couldn't get replacement parts so they gave me a courtesy car for 4 months before I got a new replacement car. Six months driving for nothing. ::) ;D
