Bought a good pair of 3M Peltor ear defenders at Aldi (because of course I did) for £15...

...and as I was mildly chuffed about m purchase, I was dumb enough to show Lady Colonial my prize.

“Why do you need those?”

 

”To protect my eyes... why do you think?  Because some of my man tools make a lot of noise, that’s why.”

 

”Do you want me to shout so you can try them out?”

 

At this point my brain-mouth filter should have kicked in... but no.

 

”You mean up until now you haven’t been shouting?”

 

:getmecoat:

 

Sure is comfy in this doghouse after all the time I’ve spent in it.

What is this filter you mention? I really need to know where to buy such a thing!

Does this not cause a problem with seeing while you’re doing all this noisy work?

 

you might want to try putting them over your ears 😀
