Yep I too miss her. She was the best one I've ever had. I'm also nervous these days since an horrific root canal and she was so good at keeping me calm, checking I was ok etc. I saw her replacement on Friday. Perfectly ok dentist but was quite sniffy with me about having missed my previous appointment and not sympathetic at all about nerves. Just ignored me when I mentioned it. It wasn't Anne Marie, I don't remember her name. Jane, the dental nurse was lovely as ever though.

I have been to see her in Wimbledon (Aoife is the right spelling I think, well it is on the website:) )Was prepared for a long journery but really wanted her to do my root canal - was pleasantly surprised about how long the trip didn't take! I got the train as I had the buggy, and at some times of the day it is a direct one from ED. So with a ten-ish min walk from Wimbledon station it all took about 30 mins. She is open every Saturday so we are going to drive over next time, which takes about 30 mins she says. My little boy adores her, so after his checkup my hubby can take them to this amazing children's theatre just a few doors up. They have a children's cafe, play area etc, and when I popped in the other day it looked like a great way to accupy my boy for while. BTW, when i was at Aoife's a woman in the waiting room had gotten the Northern Line to see her,(from Oval maybe?) the tube is only 2 mintues away apparently.

She was great as usual, the only thing missig was Jane the nurse from ED!

    • They'd been there for days but I hadn't tied them to this thread. Nice work, it was bugging me!
    • Off topic, but when I was a kid in Streatham, long ago, apart from the milkman (rarely if ever milkwoman),  who also delivered yoghurt - very exotic - in little glass jars, we also had regular deliveries of coal, bread and cheesecakes (not the kind we know now, they had coconut on top), fruit and veg,  and paraffin (both pink and blue). I'm not entirely sure we have lost "something amazing" by buying milk in shops. The glass bottles were left on the doorstep and the metallic tops were pecked through by birds getting at the cream/milk. Or else the bottles were nicked.  And then there was the rag and bone man.... bell and horse and cart, just like Steptoe. God I'm old. We didn't have supermarket deliveries. We didn't have supermarkets. I remember the first supermarket opening in Streatham. It  was quite amazing having to walk round and  put your own shopping in a basket. As you were ..... Sorry OP and admin.
    • Yep, I hear you. Been waiting for modern milkman to these parts and plan to try them out. I still remember Dennis, our Egg-man, from my childhood, who used to deliver dozens in his Citroen 2C and came to collect the boxes the following week. Happy Days. 
    • I always feel we lost something amazing when we moved away from home milk delivery with glass bottles using electric floats to driving to supermarkets and buying milk in plastic bottles. Hindsight says we should have valued the good old milky more
