    NHS Dental treatment

    If your mum falls into one of the categories given in post No 4 (or their present day equivalents as this is an old thread and some of the terms may have changed) then she qualifies....otherwise, I'm afraid not. Its not the diabetes that brings the benefit, but the means test.

    Whenever Walter Winterbottom waited watchfully while his wonderful wench Wendy Wilson waded warily in the waves, wealthy widow Wilhelmina Washbourne would wish woe upon their wooing, wildly wield a whip, whisper war-words and wage witchcraft against their wedding.

    Alphabet by Alliteration Game

    Uflagging Ursula unthinkingly uncovered uncle Ulysses's untidy umbelliferous undergrowth, uncharitably unearthing umpteen unhappy unicorns, who understandably umbrageously upbraided Ursula in unison as unfeeling, undisciplined and utterly useless!

    Quirky Quentin querulously queried Queenies queer quintuple quotations, quickly quartering quinces and quietly quacking in the quadrangle. Quixotic Quakers quiver and quail in quaggy quicksands.

    ADA urges clinicians not to use the word diabetic to describe people with diabetes, among...

    I agree, I am not defined by my diabetes....most of the time! But if I happen to be in a diabetes related crisis, then its much quicker and easier to say "I'm diabetic" than "I'm a person with diabetes". I really don't see what all the fuss is about and can't understand why some people are...
