<p>Had my temporary denture fitted today, had it for about 6 hours, still not convinced about it,  seems a little lose. I&#8217;ll give it a full day&#8217;s wear before phoning up the Dental Hospital for an earlier appointment.</p>

<p>Another appointment in Brum this afternoon, normally I look forward to it, but seeing as what time of year it is and the current cold weather, it&#8217;s going to be heaving.</p>
<p>Fingers crossed this could be my penultimate hospital appointment before I have some shiny new teeth.</p>
<p>However it won&#8217;t be the last time I&#8217;ll be visiting Brum.</p>
<p>Hope to eventually catch up with some fellow twitterers and bloggers sometime in the future. <img src='http://www.wizzardsblog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p>I seem to love going to Birmingham and the surrounding towns.</p>
<p>I have an appointment with a recruitment agency based in Sutton Coldfield. I have applied for a Data Entry position, because there are so many applicants for this position, by the time I come to register the position may have been filled.</p>
<p>However they are optomistic they can find me other work. I told the agency on the phone that I&#8217;d be willing to work within a 30 mile radius of Stafford, so that will take in all of the major towns/cities in the area.</p>
<p>Wish me luck <img src='http://www.wizzardsblog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p>This post is dedicated to a site called &#8220;<a class="zem_slink" title="Birmingham" rel="geolocation" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=52.4830555556,-1.89361111111&amp;spn=0.1,0.1&amp;q=52.4830555556,-1.89361111111%20%28Birmingham%29&amp;t=h">Birmingham</a>: It&#8217;s Not Shit&#8221;. I&#8217;m going to post it in my blogroll later.</p>
<p>I was born in <a class="zem_slink" title="Solihull" rel="geolocation" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=52.412903,-1.772094&amp;spn=0.1,0.1&amp;q=52.412903,-1.772094%20%28Solihull%29&amp;t=h">Solihull</a> just outside of Birmingham in 1974. Even though I never lived in Birmingham and left the area soon after i was born, I still class myself as a brummie and I&#8217;m proud of it.</p>
<p>No Birmingham is not shit, it&#8217;s got a rich history, iconic buildings like the <a class="zem_slink" title="Rotunda (Birmingham)" rel="geolocation" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=52.4783416667,-1.89538888889&amp;spn=0.01,0.01&amp;q=52.4783416667,-1.89538888889%20%28Rotunda%20%28Birmingham%29%29&amp;t=h">Rotunda</a>. As said on the site, it&#8217;s spawned the extremely funny <a class="zem_slink" title="Jasper Carrott" rel="imdb" href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0141056/">Jasper Carrot</a>.</p>
<p>I love the city centre, I&#8217;ve been back several times to the Dental Hospital and think to myself what a great place to be.</p>
<p>There is a diverse mix of cultures, a great atmosphere and friendly people.</p>
<p>So come on folks, give Birmingham a go, come and see for yourself what Birmingham has to offer.</p>

<p>As you know yesterday I was back in Birmingham at the Dental Hospital, finally got the plastic appliance fitted into my mouth. I was going to take a photo and publish it, but then I just couldn&#8217;t be bothered and wanted to spare you the details.</p>
<p>The first night with it in was interesting, when I woke up this morning, my mouth was quite dry, but after one day I can say it was a success, so this fingers crossed bodes well for my future treatment.</p>
<p>I return next Thursday for an update on the progress, hopefully I&#8217;ll get some idea of a treatment plan.</p>
