A boy in south Wales who has been partially deaf for nine years was suddenly cured when a cotton wool bud popped out of his ear. Jerome, now 11, was suddenly able to hear clearly again as he played with friends. 
Jerome was diagnosed as deaf in his right ear when he was  two years old. He said he heard a popping sound, then found the tip of a cotton wool bud in his ear.

His parents believe he must have put the Cotton bud in his ear as a two year old and the centimetre-long cotton tip must of become detached from the  plastic stick.

I’ve heard of pulling the wool over your eyes but not out of your ears.

 What a great idea, lets borrow some money and get the nation working again, build new roads, houses hospitals. fantastic. !!!!!  Now lets just go back a bit like the last 12 years or so. Is it not the spending and borrowing culture that got us into this mess. If Mr Brown wants to borrow more money , when do we get to pay it back. better still who pays it back, yes you’ve got it the good old tax payer. Have we not sold half of our Gold reserves at the lowest price already. Theres not much family silver left to sell off. I presume Mr Brown is calculating that he won’t be around when payback time comes.

In the mean time our new range of colours in the AWD hoodie is going great guns.

So google has been blessed by a visit from the Queen. By all accounts they didn’t spend to much time dressing up for the visit. When Prince Philip came across Matthew Trewhella a developer advocate (what ever that is) he did quite rightly enquire if he had just returned from jogging. He was dressed in a hoodie, chinos and trainers.

Wonder if it was one of our hoodies ?
