Has anyone (apart from me) taken the telephone test given by the RNID. The number is on their website. You ring it and listen (doh) to some numbers spoken against a hissing background, then tap them into the phone.
I got a 'clean bill of health' which I know is rubbish as I'm an audio visual manager (well, with the high frequencies gone and the varifocals I'm barely managing
) and I know that my hearing is getting worse as I have to employ young people who take a GREAT delight in informing me of the "hiss" in an audio system and can't I hear it?? But I take it in good heart and beat them about the head which seems to even the score!
I'm looking forward to retirement so I can stop 'bluffing' and have a proper check up
What with that, the hypertension, excessive ectopic beats, prostate problems, overweight, etc, I ought to have a competition with Dicky
but if you don't laugh about it, you won't live any longer - it will just seem so
Something about "death and taxes"
