Anyone in Lincolnshire with a NHS Dentist?

[pfer]

We have to travel an hour to our dentist, which was ok, as we made a day shopping of it. got a letter today saying they are no longer NHS and we'll have to pay loads of cash. there are none here. can I get a ni stamp reduction?

Obviously not then

in sleaford there is a dentist who takes pateints and charges NHS prices, not the same I know but its been well received here
sleaford independent dental practive
the owner and his wife are parents of our ds's schoolfriend.

piffle - yes, I know Karen and Gordon well myself.... small world eh? I'm in Ruskington .

Just astounded at the lack of NHS facilities here, any going to go register with Karen later..

Was just about to post the same as piffle, I've lived here 3 yrs and never managed to see a dentist on the nhs yet.
Oh btw I'm ruskington as well - first time I've 'seen' someone who lives so close to me.

LRKIDS - OMG! A fellow ruskovite!! Are your busy all day next friday the 18th Nov? Children in need day? We are arranging a sponsored peddle from London to Edinburgh - Done at the Station fitness centre - from 10am till finish. We need all the legs we can get to help. Do you think you can spread the word?

I live in Grantham and so far my dentist is still NHS, so keeping my fingers crossed he will continue to be.
Nice to know there are a few mumsnetters nearby

we knnow their dd, ds and K+G's dd and another friend were all grounded together one week last school yr
BH all these folk just up road!
I go to the station gym a lot......

piffle, will we see you on fri 18th then? please...

unlikely am off to Ireland for the rugby All Blacks vs the Oirish.
Was going to ask you do you use any of the sleaford nurseries or do you have one up in Ruskington?

Piffle, we have one in Ruskington which is very good. All the carers are really nice and approachable and there's even a man training there now!!

A man how progressive for the rurals LOL
It s alright I was just checking you were not the lady I nearly ran over when reversing out of dd's nursery yesterday LOL

, so you're not the one I was flicking the 'V's at then when she nearly ran DS1, DS2 any myself down in one go?

not me honest guv, the lady I nearly sconed had one toddler and it was a she - unless you ress your boy in pink combats with a sparkly babe jacket and pink scrunchies in his long curly blonda hair?

Just have to say, har, har, har at the thought og getting and NHS dentist in lincs. That was my best bitter laugh!

pfer I'll try and pop down next friday, don't know whether I'm working or not yet. I'll definitely pop in to donate some money even if I've no time for joining in
I used to work in a nursery in sleaford and its amazing the number of times people nearly ran me over, and the number of times staff cars were hit by parents cars - a drawback of a small car park I suppose.

LRKIDS - my car got hit my a member of staff!!!

oooh which nursery lrkids?

piffle - bet you've nearly got her a few times eh?

just checking LOL
must say getting very cross with morning traffic in Sleaford
DS has broken arm and needs driving to the grammar school every mornings. It's a testament to anyones driving skill to turn around in Tescos at that time of the day and NOT run a teenager over...

Sleafords rubbish to drive round isn't it?

The other week DS1 and I decided to go to the shops. It took us almost an hour to get into Sleaford. The lights and the level crossing had broken and so had the barriers. There were trains galore and they had ONE man hand winding FOUR barriers! Then we had to go carefully because the lights were out. Idiots.

We almost always use the bypass now as the rail crossing makes me so
I think the council realise that something needs to be done, with all the expansion in housing and stuff....
Schools too I guess, jam packed primaries!

TBH I usually go to Lncoln now. got all the shops i need in st marks and a free hour parking.

yep was there today buying M+S choc puddings for our weekly treat (dieting you see)
Always loads of room on top floor ofTK Maxx and oh gosh just like to browse in there for a little bit too
Had some dead scary trips along the a15 though. once witnessed a fatal collision and still get v nervous driving that way.

was in staples office supplies earlier sniffing paper (stationery fetish). was that speed camera still on the a15 when you came back? hope you don't get done for doing about 62! ds1 needed a wee!

Me nah I go at abot 35 mph since seeing that accident
