Can't you buy those ear candles?


Might have to try that, not sure how they work but will try anything, tonight at footy will be hard if I cant clear it!


Ear candles do not work and can be quite dangerous. Avoid.

It's a two person process, need someone to let you know when the candle is nearly done.

The wife was doing it one night while I was playing the PS, I was keeping an eye on the candle spasmodically when at some stage I stopped what I was doing and had a shocked look on my face. I kept telling her that there's nothing wrong and then she pulled the candle out and looked next to her to see this massive spider right there about a foot away :lol: :lol:

If I had freaked out or alerted her sooner wax and flame would've gone everywhere, I was making sure it wasn't heading towards her.

Ear wax "softening" drops will take some time to work. If after 2/3 days and there is no improvement (I am assuming that If it feels like there is water in your ear which will be from the wax pressing on the eardrum), a trip to a GP who can flush it is the go. Otherwise a trip to a chemist for an at home device for some do it yourself care.

As tempting as it is, do not put anything in your ear canal smaller than your elbow.


I heard that as a kid on c'mon kids.

Just go to doctors & get it flushed. Doesn’t take long & it’s instant relief.

Workplace law re : Contract clauses that prevent you from joining another company in your field.

Anyone in that field?

Not specifically, but there is normally a 3 month period between ending one and joining another??

I've got a 6 month clause in mine but we've had people leave and go to the same industry and not chased down.

From previous experience it’s just piss and wind and not worth the paper it’s written on. That was many years ago mind you but the legal advice at the time was that the company wouldn’t have a leg to stand on

My understanding is that it's considered a restraint of trade and isn't something that's actually enforceable.

We had a Purchasing officer leave and go to a direct opponent...they threatened to go him but never did. If that didnt get looked at, nothing will. He would have had access to all our costs.

Exactly my thoughts. I happily signed such an instrument almost 20 years ago, knowing full well that it counted for squat.

Amusingly enough I didn't last a year in that job...

What sort of instrument? I always thought you'd be pianist.
