    Right, so I'm sitting here

    Indoors again cos of the midges. Where I'm sitting has a mirror directly in front of me with the sun highlighting every part of my head in great detail.

    I have two long hairs growing out of the top of my right ear, this isn't the usual ear hair some people are afflicted with that grows in clumps from yer earhole but on the top edge.

    Can't get a grip to pull them out but more concerning why hasn't anybody mentioned this to me, I look like a sort of lopsided Dobby? Can't see them when shaving and no real advice on t'internet on dealing with hirsute outer ear issues. Somebody somewhere must find this funny (likely everybody I meet in public, I wondered why the sniggering lately), but nobody points it out.

    What would you do if a friend was ignorant about an unsightly body issue?

    My lovely tiny baby had a thick black hair growing out the top of his ear. On his Christening day, I pulled it out with tweezers. It never grew back, but left a crater which I spent the next ten years squeezing pus out of. He still has the crater, but no longer allows me to squeeze his ear (not a good idea now he's bigger than me) so I've no idea what alien life forms are growing in there. So stick with the hair - it's better than having your mum squeeze your ear for ten years.

        Have you invented a transporter and accidentally got into it with a midgey?

        Is there a midgey around strumming a banjo?

        If there is, make a great movie...

          Wrong vertical orientation and would still be a bit lopsided, still a good suggestion

            I got radical with the hair clippers.

            If I got into a transporter and did the midge thing I'd be sucking more blood than Dodgy (just).

                Actually I did join a band with what was left of Ultravox and worked with Midge, a lovely guy all around.
