I couldn't help laugh, in yesterday's Sunday Times (sorry can't link the article as you have to pay now) a small piece by Rod Liddle (he's one of their more irreverent columnists and often takes pot shots at the establishment and general silliness) told of a dentist who's in trouble for smacking women patients' bottoms, touching their breasts and suggesting they might be able to settle their bills in certain ways.
The dentist has appeared in court, his case is ongoing. His excuse - you'll love this - was that he's left handed and his surgery is built for right handed dentists, it makes it awkward for him to negotiate some of the equipment and his hand can end up where it shouldn't be. Ha! Well if he gets off the hook with that one it can only be by a left handed judge who's had similar problems. The author of the story notes that our most prominent public left hander at the present time in the UK is our prime minister David Cameron, and he issues a tongue in cheek warning to his female cabinet colleague, Theresa May the Home Secretary, to watch her back...and her front for that matter.
I've only recently signed up to a new dentist, a lady as it happens, and she seems ok. But the thought of booking a check-up and polish, oh and I'll have a bottom smacking while you're at it please, made me smile.
Sorry haven't been around commenting much this weekend, having problems again with blogger.
