Help Yourself!!!

I went to my first english dentist yesterday.

My dentist back home said I needed all this work done, wisdom teeth pulled, cavities...this dentist said my teeth were fine, i didnt need any of those things, even told me she wouldnt pull my wisdom teeth coz they were no threat...the cleaning was pretty basic and i got my chip filled.

Is this a common procedure? If it is, I can now see why english have a bad rep for having bad teeth. They hardly got cleaned. The hygenist didnt even clean my teeth, the dentist did!

Weird.

So It will be a month on sunday at Des' flat. He says the blow up bed is really comfortable. I am starting to notice how lazy he actually is. Christine made all his decisions for him down to what he would order for food and went on to dish out his plate and bring it to him.

My mistake last night was for not eating earlier because by 7:30 I was starving with no food to make.

I call Nick to pick up some fish & chips on his way home in half an hour.

We hang up.

I say to Des, 'Nicks picking up some fish & chips, do you want any?'

Des, 'Oh, I was going to get some take-out'

Me, 'oh' trying to wonder why he hasnt mentioned it or already ordered something. 'Well, I dont mind fish & chips'

Him, 'theres lots of take-outs on the high street, I havent tried any yet.'

'Ok,' so I call call Nick back and asks if he fancies take-out. He doesnt mind. I still want quick fish & chips. Des wants take-out.

So Des gets up and goes into the kitchen...meanwhile my poor tummy is rumbling. I assume hes gone into the kitchen to get a take-out menu. He comes back in and asks me if I want a cup of tea.

???

If he wants take-out, he has to order it!! So I am forced to ask him if he has any menus which he doesnt so Im wondering how were going to order take-out without any menus. I ask, he tells me theres usually some in the hallway of the apartment building and that he quite fancies chinese.

Yes, I am expected to go out, find a pamphlet and probably order for him.

Nick texts what he wants, I already know what I want so I give Des the pamphlet. 5...10 minutes later as Nick is walking in the door with what could be my fish & chips...Des puts the pamphlet down and says....

'I dont know what I want.' What??? 'What are you guys having?'

Me, ' chicken curry and garlic beef'

Des, 'that sounds good, Ill get that,'

Gives me back the pamphlet to make an order. What could cost £12 for fish & chips now cost £30 for chinese. I dont know how this happens. Plus a 45 min wait for delivery.

Food finally comes, I dish myself out quickly as so Des doesnt have time to steal my plate (thinking its for him...remember the hamburger incident?) Nick and Des are standing in the kitchen, Nick is washing spoons and Des says to Nick, 'Well, are you gonna dish up then?'

He cant even dish up his own food.
