To my legal lot. Read mt fucking emails sent in fucking November last year.
You’ll find all the fucking information you asked for. In November.
Don’t try to call me when I am on cunting early middle shift run which sees me getting up at 03:30.
No cunt appreciates being called at 23:00 and given a fucking deadline. For information sen almost six fucking months ago.
And Sadiq Khan. Sort TfL out. That’s more important than your fucking wardrobe.
The last time he ‘sorted out’ TfL I lost my job.
Hope you’re feeling better today 
I’m running on fumes… Hopefully get through the day without biting anyone…
As for sorting out TfL, I was referring to this:
Which since a direct bus route to where I needed was cut, meant spending £20 on a fucking taxi…
Private sector hearing testers. Fucking grifting snake oil salespeople of the highest fucking order.
Only problem is he pulled all that shit on the good lady and I’ll be spending the next couple of days persuading her it was all a fucking sales pitch.
At the end of his spiel i asked if he had a pair she could try and to repeat the test with them in. “Only have a demo set sir, they are not a direct comparison to our range and aren’t suited to a test, which is why we offer a 60 day money back guarantee.”
I bet you fucking do you cunts. At £3290 for a mid price pair i expect champaign and dancing girls, not the dank back room of the local opticians. I could easily of landed a verbal tirade on him but for my better half being there. How do they live with themselves?
Think of the worst excesses of hifi sales patter with maximum foo, you still aren’t scratching the surface of this sales patter.
He didn’t even give the results in db loss, just said hearing was down by 30% in both ears, that could be entirely normal.
Does she find the NHS ones (free via Specsavers) not good enough? I got a set recently, pre programmed individually for the response of each ear. The app they come with (Signia) allows a degree of tone control, adjustment of level and directionality. Probably not as good as the latest £££K offerings but much better than nothing.
I’ll be suprised if she even needs them Guy. She went in there too have ear wax removed, not done for five years and she suffered from rapid build up, so her hearing had been affected by that. No sooner had he cleared the wax, he hooked her up to a laptop and within 15 minutes was trying to flog her up to 5 grands worth of hearing aid.
Just got the email with the db figures on, 7db loss, fffs, that’s bugger all.
Happt days, Miriam is sackng it off with no prompting from me.
I’m in, if they can make a boombox sound like a Mirrorphonic set up?
Can @coco san do an LCR version?
The one i saw was brilliant. He said he could sell me some hearing aids, but my hearing was bad and i should see a consultant who he thought would prescribe hearing aids on the NHS. Et voila, some time later the NHS provided me with hearing aids having seen the consultant.
The equipment the private bloke had was FAR better than the NHS and I had far more faithin the private audiologist than the consultant who is hopeless. I’ve seen him twice and its like pullling teeth.
Did she have an established baseline for that claim, or was that versus some meaningless average for her age group?
No explanation given at all, i assumed it was against perfect hearing,.
She is going to book a test up with them. Did you get a referral from a Doc, or were you a walk in?
Shocking, especially given the price of the HAs!
I tried a crappy one a few years ago & it was setting my tinnitus off so I abandoned it.
I was seeing the GP about something else more recently and asked about them again & got referred for a test/measurement session with Specsavers. These seem a lot more advanced than the old one was although I imagine the latest digital models are a good bit better still. Not sure my less good ear functions well enough to make a better model be really worthwhile although Specsavers did say I could go back & have a demo of them.
My mum had a hearing test done at their optician and when she spoke to the GP he said you can’t use a private hearing aid test to get an NHS hearing aid. You need to see a consultant and have a hearing test done. Current waiting time 6-9 months.
That was a year ago and she’s still waiting for the appointment.
Depends on NHS trust (again) ours has out sourced to a number of private suppliers, including spec savers, just need a referal from GP. Sorted in about 2 weeks.
For those who need them, if you really want one good for music, or only need one as you still have one good funtioning ear, and are prepared to pay, worth checking out Widex Moment as they have just about zero time delay
Scrivens did my (NHS) hearing test and provide hearing aids, the service has been excellent.
Roger Waters - at O2 last June, ticket price £115
Nick Mason - at Royal Albert Hall this June, ticket price £100
David Gilmour - at Royal Albert Hall this Oct, ticket price £250!
I had 2 tickets in the basket this morning for the 5th row in the stalls section O, nearest to the stage.
After relistening to the pre-released track again, I declined.
£250 is just too much for me, especially in context of the other concerts and the turgid pre-release track.
Whilst you can sell tickets for this price, do you (David) really need to scalp your fans?
TfL can have one for this little lot:
Thought they’d just finished a big track refurb 
I’ll check tomorrow
