Buttons- I always get sore ears, I get that horrible feeling on the eardrum like a burning ache, however I've got scarred ears too from a bad infection when I was wee so don't know what its like for a normal person lol
I've got an array of hats, a pink one with kitten ears is my current fave by DD goes mental when I wear it out, can't imagine why

See it tends to just be one of my ears that gets it bad but it seems to spread to the normal ear! I have scar tissue and a tiny percent of hearing loss in one ear because I had a bead stuck in my ear for god knows how many years :eek:
I obviously poked it in as a kid, and would explain the 8 a year ear infections I got, I only found out because I got a bit of chicken gristle stuck in a salivary gland, so everytime I ate, my cheeks/neck filled up with spit, looked like a hamster! That was when I was 16 and the first time I had been to the doctor since I was 5, I used to be healthy, now I'm never bleemin' away from the Doctors! Anyhoo, he !!!!!! himself when he looked in my ears and was like "OH! WOW! You have a pink elephant in your ear!" I was like......"Wut?"
Long story short, I had to go to ENT to get it removed as it was so far down and it was such a funny thing to be in your ear that all the students were coming in for a look and a laugh, and I was laying there mortified! So some scar tissue in that ear, probably all the ear infections and gross paint from the bead!
Oh and he got the gristle out my gland by slapping me on the side of the neck :rotfl:
This is why I won't let Keira have beads in any shape or form, they are just too attractive to poke in holes, I remember poking beads up my nose and snorting them out, competition with my sister to see who could shoot them the furthest :eek::D0 -

Jillie, good news if he gets the support he needs in place before he goes. But considering that this week is registration week....
Feelie, it's down to 2. Our local, which I'm not happy would fulfil all his needs or another one with an assisted learning needs unit which his OT and SALT would like him to go too.
Dunno... I'm hesitant. ALNU school is going to call me back to arraneg a day to go visit.0 -

Buttons will it make your confession seem less unique if I confess to sticking a bit of scrabble up my nose and blowing it out years later?0

Beads and scrabble are now banned in this house.
Where does one buy a mummy-appropriate bikini online for not too much money? I am sick of accidentally looking at thong bikinis that are handwash only and not suitable to actually go in the water.Organised Birthdays and Christmas: Spend So Far: £193.75; Saved from RRP £963.76
