Dentist always ask questions when it is impossible for you to answer,My dentist had just pulled out one of my teeth and had told me to rest for a while. I tired to say  sth, but my mouth was full of cotton wool.He knew I collected match boxes and asked me whether my collection was growing. He then asked me how my brother was and whether I liked my new job in London. In answer to these questions I either noded or made strang2 noises. Meanwhile, my tongue was busy searching out the hole where the teeth had been. I suddenly felt very worried, but couldn't say anything. When the dentist at last removed the cotton wool from my mouth, I was able to tell him thathe had pulled out the wrong tooth!
