I was off work on Monday this week and Raashi was working in Edinburgh (she’s been doing IV sedation for another dental practice now and again), so I took the girls to the transport museum for something to do. The plan was to go swimming but our youngest daughter Sienna had a bit of a… Continue reading Darts! Darts! Darts! →

Been a lot of celebration this past week starting with my mums birthday party back in Belfast, the Indian Festival of Light (Diwali) last Sunday, Halloween, then on Friday the Scottish Dental Awards. It always nice to be back home and make the most of the free babysitting services. Can’t beat it. We took Mila… Continue reading Celebrations 🎉 →

I felt like a small child at Christmas this week as my new loupes were delivered on Monday after a long wait. Loupes are the magnification glasses some dentists wear to help us see better and in more detail. I went for a pretty powerful magnification and they’re absolutely class. I can see so well with… Continue reading No more Trains 🚂 →

I was back in Manchester this week for the second of three visits in as many weeks on dental courses. This one was from a dental business coach and focused on personal development and time management. I had to go down late on Tuesday night after work, arriving to the hotel around midnight. It would… Continue reading (re)location, (re)location, (re)location →

Spent Friday and Saturday this week in Manchester on a dental course. I went with our dentist Kamal, leaving on Friday morning on the 5.40am train. This meant a 4.45am alarm.😴 The course itself was very good to be fair, all about composite bonding and how as dentists we can improve our results with this. But you… Continue reading Dentistry Scotland Awards 2019 Finalists →

Arrived back to Ireland late on Friday night after getting the boat across from Cairnryan. Raashi and I swiftly ditched the kids with my parents on Saturday morning and headed down to their caravan in County Down. We brought our dog Fergie as he absolutely loves the beach and doesn’t cry or need nappies changed.… Continue reading Powering through →

It was nice to get the BBQ back out yesterday for what’s likely to be it’s last outing of the year. With all the young babies around (and more on the way!) it was a Baileys and bed for us at 9.30pm though. We were half thinking it’s a lame bed time for a Saturday night… Continue reading A walk in the park just isn’t the same any more. →

Feeling a bit tender today after our sponsored charity walk for Marie Curie yesterday. I genuinely thought that It would be much easier than it was, even going so far as calling it a ‘stroll’ before we started. But I don’t think ill underestimate walking again after that! We kicked off from Balmaha at 9.15am… Continue reading All for a good cause! →

Got back from holiday in Turkey on Saturday morning in the early hours, had such a nice time away with the family and would definitely go back to the same resort. The best bit was the things to do for kids. There was so much stuff for them and the kids club even included a… Continue reading £115 of £300 – almost half way! →

On holiday in 🦃 at the moment, currently sitting by the baby pool shade-bathing while our youngest daughter Sienna has a nap. We left on Friday afternoon after a 2 hour wait on the runway – thankfully nothing wrong with the planes left phalange in the end though. The delay wasn’t fun to be honest… Continue reading Turkey round 2 🇹🇷 →

Thats me just after my second of 2 fillings with Laura over the past 2 weeks. Clearly still quite numb in that photo. 1 on each side and both have been absolutely great! Laura did show me a photograph of my tooth underneath my old filling just after the procedure. This was bad news as… Continue reading Making an impact →

We had a great staff night out on Friday night at the escape rooms on Bath Street followed by dinner at Zizzi’s. Unfortunately we didn’t actually make it out of the room before the time limit though. It was definitely quite tough so i’m glad the guy just opened the door as I think we’d… Continue reading Wedding Fun 🕺🏻 →

So I had a taste of what it’s like to be a patient at our practice myself this week as I had to book in with Laura and Danielle to change one of my fillings. We took an x-ray a few weeks ago and noticed that my silver filling had some decay under it, probably… Continue reading Role reversal- my turn to be the patient! →

Not long back from a spin class today for the first time in a couple of years. They’re so tough but great exercise. At one point though I had to go out for a lie down in the corridor outside the spin room as I thought I was going to faint. Thankfully I didn’t but… Continue reading ‘Partying’ all weekend →

Just finished giving our youngest daughter Sienna her sink and now ready for her feed and bed. Now that she’s 7 months and quite chunky I think her days of sinking are numbered and she’ll be due an upgrade to the bath soon. The thing is our kitchen sinks are quite deep and the tap… Continue reading Living for the weekend (carbs) →

Today we finally took the plunge (literally) by going swimming at our local pool with our daughters and joined the gym as full members. Hopefully this means we will actually go sometimes. Watch this space. We were part motivated to join the gym by ‘Faceapp’ which seemed to go viral this week. It gave us… Continue reading Taking the plunge →

Glasgow fair presented us with an opportunity to get the boat back to Ireland this weekend and we’ve spent it at my parents caravan in County Down. The views and the weather have been absolutely amazing. Friday night we arrived late so it was a netflix and chill evening. (I’ve been informed by our staff… Continue reading Glasgow Fair Festivities →

This week we sat our youngest daughter Sienna down and said “listen your 6 months old now Sienna, it’s time you moved out of our room and found your own place.” She took it quite well to be fair, found a lovely wee room just a couple of doors down and negotiated an 18 year… Continue reading #Itiswhatitis →

I’ve spent this weekend on the Isle of Man 🇮🇲 at a friends stag do. Naively I thought it’s not that far away and will be easy to get to and home from, but unfortunately that’s not true at all. We flew from Glasgow via Birmingham with a 3 hour stop over to get here.… Continue reading The Isle of Man 🇮🇲 →
