    Did you want to tell me something
    Dentists 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 tried to
    say something, but my mouth was full of cotton-wool. He knew I collected
    birds' eggs 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 nodded or made strange noises. Meanwhile, my
    tongue was busy searching out the hole where the tooth had been. I suddenly felt
    very worried, but could not say anything.When the dentist at last removed the
    cotton-wool from my mouth, I was able to tell him that he had pulled out the
    wrong tooth.
