Just had this article from the BBC pop up in my inbox:

This is really sad, you can’t buy followers, it’s like trying to buy friends. If you want to make friends you go out there and be interesting, be a nice guy to be around and gain friends that way.

The same goes for followers, be interesting, have something interesting to say, then people will follow you.

Sorry uSocial you just don’t get it.

On the way home it sounding like Chewbacca was riding with us, that was the noise the train was making as it was travelling along, it sounded quite funny.

Thankfully the aircon was working it was a nice cool train ride home, got off the train and the heat just hit me, I’m sitting here typing away, sweating like crazy.

A third molar.

In my post earlier today I said that I was off to Birmingham Dental Hospital to have a plastic appliance fitted. I was correct in thinking it would look like gum shield.

Unfortunately despite having accurate impressions of my teeth the appliance wouldn’t fit properly, so another impression was taken and I will return on 16th July to have it fitted.

The dentist was also worried that one of my teeth near where the plate in my jaw is was infected, so I had to have the plate x-rayed, couldn’t see any infection, but going to make sure for when I return.

It was too hot to do much else, so it was a quick trip to Burger King and a look in HMV and Borders before jumping on the train home.

It’s 08:22 BST, it is already warm, I’m trying to keep cool, hopefully it’ll work as I mentioned in yesterday’s post I’m off to Birmingham this afternoon to be fitted for my plastic appliance.

I’m going to be sweating buckets today, but it’ll be worth it.

Catch you all later.

Back to Birmingham tomorrow to have this plastic appliance fitted as mention in my previous dental post. It’s going to be a fun few months ahead, hopefully it won’t take too long to get used to it.

I’m imagining it to be similar to a gum shield a rugby player or boxer would wear. I could however be completely wrong.

I shall be posting photos of said appliance, don’t worry I’ll wash it first ;)

That’s another month ticked off on the calendar, this year is just flying by.

Had a bumper posting month last month, easily made up for the days that I didn’t post anything.

Here’s to even more posts in July.

English: James May at a recording of Top Gear....

Posing as 17 year olds to see if they could buy a car and insure it with a budget of £2,500 or £2,000 (please correct me in the comments) was another class challenge, as usual James May having to put up with being the butt of Richard Hammond’s and Jeremy Clarkson’s extremely funny pranks.

The cars on show were awesome as usual, don’t expect me to go into minute detail, I’m not a petrol head, even though I do like cars, I don’t know one end of a piston to the other. But I do know a fast car when I see one.

Good to see Stephen Fry on the show, and a nice shout out to Twitter as well.

I thought they’d done away with the “Star in a reasonably priced car” segment because they didn’t have it on last week, good to see they hadn’t.

Bring on next week’s show, I feel this series is going to fly by far too quickly.

Anyone else caught the first episode of this new series with Ben Fogle and James Cracknell? I didn’t realise Johnny Lee Miller was such a fitness fanatic and he was really stoked that he was asked to participate in the Atlantic Race.

I’m really looking forward to this weeks episode.

It seems I’m getting an influx of dating and porn spammers following me lately, on my @R_Arblaster and @wizzardsblog accounts.

I can find my own dates thank you, just that I’m enjoying the single life too muich at the moment to go looking for a relationship.

I can find plenty of porn on the internet that’s what google is for.

Feel free to follow me, I however won’t be following you back. When I get a spare few moments you will be blocked (when twitter stops breaking vital functions).

Teeth of a model.

As you are probably aware today I had another appointment at Birmingham Dental Hospital. I’ve got to go back next Thursday, 2nd July to have a plastic appliance fitted to widen my bite, to see if I can tolerate having it widened to have false teeth fitted.

Things are slowly moving on.
