I am a Foldy.

Isn't that a lovely term? I came across it in an Icelandic thriller (read in the original of course 
) and it's gym-personal-trainer slang for a 'fat oldy' - well it is in Iceland so I presume it is over here: I shall ask my trainer next time I see her.
I shall soon be a toothless foldy too, I need a number of extractions thanks to advanced gum disease: honestly, when you need something to hurt to let you know things aren't right it doesn't . . . . DD

Have you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben

I hope the extractions are as painless as possible, and your mouth heals quickly.

Hope the teeth extractions go well.

The extractions are not due yet, there is much to be done beforehand plus they are not hurting . . . . . I had my first session with the hygienist today, unpleasant and foul on the joints but hey-ho, what isn't? I came home with four sizes of interdental brushes, so what with them and the brushing I think my tooth cleaning routine will now take up much of the day.
