Rainbows In My Wine

On Anzac Day Vikki was reminiscing a day / night / past Anzac Day when we went to 'some pub' and met a couple of sailors, the great day / night - I was drawing a blank, I sincerely could not remember and tried convincing her that she must have been with someone else... After too much time 'one was a dentist' and one outcome 'We said we would go out on a double date with them and never called' I finally remembered. Since my memory is seriously on the blink I'm testing my poor little brain to keep a better register of the last couple of weeks social events. Vik what was the other thing we did and you tried to jog my memory 'one was a dentist'?
