    Lol talking about tweezers, I wish I had a tiny pair as I ve managed to get a cotton bud stuck in my ear. I know these shouldn t be used but when you have ears like mine that drive me crazy itching all the time it's hard. Anyway I went to the outpatients at the hospital this morning and they can't see anything:eek:so I have to go to the e.n.t. Clinic next week Great.

    Argggh, one of my colleagues did this and they got it out at a&e, I wouldn't be able to stand the thought of it in there. Hope it gets sorted.

    Wouldn't this work out better value though as you don't have to buy fillers for a brand match, ages since I did one can you top up to £20 with clothing ???? I think I did a few years ago when I last did one?:o

    Hi all :wave::wave::wave:long time no see, lurked now and again. Too shattered for T's and A's at the moment :( well I tell a lie rushed to T's yesterday at 3.40pm and tried to do 3 baked bean pp shops (me/sis/bro) totally humiliating trying to weigh a single grape , single sprout, single floret of broccoli etc etc in the first shop with the scales not recognising the weight of each one and the the SA whispering into her headset the whole time giving me evils lol!!!!

    In the end I just left the whole lot there and walked out as red as a beet root!!!

    Hope your all well hugs for logie, tiny shoes and mark and hoping I can spend a bit more time on here in future xxxx

    Hi chuck it's a bit too far to travel :( , if anyone could confirm the sainsbob brand match works that would be so much easier! I'll pop out this evening as soon as I get a babysitter!
    How are things? Have you heard from Beki recently???

    ABSOLUTELY DO NOT PUT ANYTHING ELSE IN YOUR EAR!

    I know they itch but that's because they are trying to expel a foreign body. By pushing other stuff in there, all you are achieving is to push it further down and potentially perforate your eardrum, leading to possibly needing surgery to correct it.

    Why do you have to wait until next week? Why can't they see you this



    Or olive oil drops or sodium bicarbonate drops for wax


    They can't see me this week as they're fully booked up apparently. They don't seem too concerned just said if you have any problems come back. It doesn't t bother me it being in there but I would like to get it out before then and to save me going there. I've put some olive oil in there but I can t see how that would work if they can't even see anything when they looked in there with some type of instrument.
