Did you go back?

Such a funny post :)

I've always wanted my ears syringing but have a slightly damaged ear drum so cannot have it done.

Hoovering sounds much less invasive.

Off to google.

It was pretty big, April, and he knew what to do with it.

NC Yvaine here...

Funnily enough, I had an email reminding me of that very fact the other day.

I'm toying with the idea of another liaison with my suck-buddy, yes...

I'd like to think you had a reminder set in your phone to check back.

Angelica88 · 04/04/2017 23:20

It's been a year now @YvaineStormhold

Have you been again?!

Chrisinthemorning · 28/04/2016 19:28

I had it done this week and it doesn't hurt, it was really good.
I can recommend 2020 hearing in Leeds.

CruCru · 28/04/2016 12:44

Tell him it doesn't hurt whatsoever.

bluebelle2662 · 28/04/2016 11:10

Just messaged my currently-deaf-in-one -ear husband to advise him of ear suctioning.

He didn't seem that keen.

Selfish.

Blush don't try an actual Hoover

This thread is amazing Wine

yumyumpoppycat · 19/04/2016 23:36

That picture is vile --- thread would so not have worked with photos Grin

Clockstooticky · 19/04/2016 17:36

I have made an appointment and am being hoovered tomorrow. I've no idea if there is anything in there but they itch like hell and I'm so excited.

Chippednailvarnish · 19/04/2016 10:28

As a manufacturer of Asian dry wax Cru i'm jealous.

CruCru · 19/04/2016 10:05

Ah, so you all like photos of ear wax then?

I went to the Clear Ear Clinic and this is what happened.

I don't get wax building up in my ears. Sad DS2 takes after DH & regularly has the most satisfying globs that are just visible enough for me to pin him down & catch the end. He's only 2.5yo & I'm already dreading the time when he won't let me manage his grooming. DH won't let me either. He protests his innocence but I think he's a secret sporner & just wants the joy for himself. I'm contemplating LTselfishB.

Is there anything one can do to encourage ear wax production or am I doomed to never know the ecstasy of ear hoovering?

Cagliostro · 18/04/2016 02:11

Phwoar, what a thread.

I tried popping my ears for some release but to no avail. Now I'm all waxually frustrated :(

I've got a dentist who's over seven feet tall
Yes I've got a dentist who's over seven feet tall
Long John they call him, and he answers every call

Well I went to Long Johns office and told him the pain was killin'
Yes I went to Long Johns office and told him the pain was killin'
He told me not to worry, that my cavity just needed fillin'

He said "when I start drillin', I'll have to give you novocaine"
He said, "Yes, when I start drillin', I'll have to give you novocaine
Cause ev'ry woman just can't stand the pain"

He took out his trusty drill
And he told me to open wide
He said he wouldn't hurt me
But he filled my hole inside
Long John, Long John, you've got that golden touch
You thrill me when you drill me, and I need you very much

When he got through, he said "Baby that will cost you ten"
Yes when he got through, he said "Baby that will cost you ten
Six months from now, come back and see me again"

Say you're supposed to see your dentist
'Bout twice a year, that's right
But I think I feel it throbbin'
Yes I'll go back there tonight
Long John, Long John, don't ever move away
Say I hope I keep on achin' so I can see you every day. Wink

Earex were my drops of choice, taylor.

Very satisfying - but nothing compared to the real deal.

This is so funny but what about the feeling Otex eardrops give you? A crackling in your ears bit like popping candy lol.

I love this thread. It gives me much hope as I'm getting mine done a week on Monday. I'm expecting large blobs ear jizz.
