Syringe my ears.

Post by Gibbo2286 »

Neil asked for a new year thread. :)

Well not mine but a friend's. She's deaf from a gummed up eardrum. previously a case of soaking the ear with olive oil for a few days then going to the GP's and having it syringed by the practice nurse.

This time they told her "We don't do that any more." and referred her to a private clinic where she would have to pay £65 for the treatment.
Man is, by nature, a lazy beast, he does not need twice encouraging to do nothing.

My mate had exactly that problem with his surgery, but apparently the NHS see it differently and told the surgery - "We pay you to do that, so you'll do it". The surgery are very reluctant to do the job, but they'll do it now !

That’s the finest thread title so far this January.

Much kudos Gibbo, Part of the FCF’s uniqueness and charm, I can fairly safely say that you won’t find a thread called Syringe my ears anywhere else on the world wide web :-D
