Karma part II and dental tourism

Some of you may have seen an earlier blog post entitled Karma. About how I lost a pair of sun glasses on Reduit beach, then found a new pair. Well Karma hadn't finished with me yet. The pair I found in the surf on Reduit beach, returned the Davy Jone's locker whence they came, during a rather rough dinghy landing. May be I should have tried harder to find the owner.

 

Also this morning I wern't to the Dentist, its been a while since I last went. Quite a long while. I've been meaning to for ages. But haven't been on the books of a Dentist, and there hard to find on the NHS these days. The ache that made my mind up started days before I flew out. The Dentist here in St Lucia, was nice friendly helpful, not too disapproving of of my long absence from the chair. What I can say is, even If I was on the NHS its a lot cheaper over here. If we in England are worried about people coming over and using the NHS as "Medical Tourists" then we probably get it back on the Dental side £35 for a checkup and a filling. Don't thing the NHS can beat that. Even If you could find an NHS dentist.
