No Duff.
At least, I think it's a fly. I was lying under the open Velux window and reached over for something, exposing my earhole for a moment. Something landed on my ear and I swatted at it - next thing you know, there was a bit of a rattle and a buzzing noise and there's a fcuking fly in my ear. I think it's a very small one that sounds loud because it's right up against my eardrum.
Anyway, of course, I flapped like feck and tried turning my ear t'other way and slapping my head. No joy. And getting a bottle of water to sluice it out. Nope. The buzzing just sounded a bit wetter. Then I remembered something about being advised to clean out your ears with a few drops of Olive Oil so I went to the kitchen and poured in a couple of capfuls. Have you ever tried pouring something into your ear? Most of it ended up on my face and the kitchen floor but the buzzing stopped at least.
So now I've got a dead fly in my ear and no idea how big it is - anyone got any ideas how to get rid of it? Dr is £50 a throw here and I'm not paying that for a mozzie.
