It was much easier than I’d imagined. Thought I’d made quite a neat job for a novice. Just a temporary fix you understand, filling my own tooth, until I reach an English speaking dentist in Istanbul. But necessary. Try cycling in icy cold air with an exposed cavity. Smarts. A lot. And I’d had copious advice from a very experienced dentist at home, had proper filling paste, carefully scrubbing everything clean first. Course of antibiotics to tackle some suspicious swelling. Another new experience. Wondered what the new year would bring.
Happy New Year to you Ken
Dafydd here, from near Penygroes, Caernarfon. I called at Dewi’s over Christmas and again yesterday and asked about you. I’ve been following your blog postings since you started your epic adventure. All my best wishes are with you and hope that the near future cycling is enjoyable and rewarding for you, I must admit I’m very envious.
I’m visiting New Zealand at the begining of April 2010, as a recce and holiday prior to my end to end cycle of the country next January 2011.
Again, best wishes from Wales. Hwyl fawr i ti o Gymry. Dafydd
