This photo post today started out exclusively for Little Mr.
Whilst on the road we’ve been subjected a few times to the sound of a six year old boy’s excited screams of delight , excitement and delirium whenever heavy machinery is spotted (the experience is ear shattering, believe me). The bigger the heavy machinery, the higher and more prolonged the volume emitted from said child. If any future hearing test reveals impairment I could in all likelihood have (amongst others) these machines to blame.
If I get really deaf in my later years and Little Mr. gets sick of yelling at me to put my hearing aids in, I’ll be able to pull up this post, turn the tables, telling him that his childhood scarred me for life and by the way I need him to do a few chores for me please. (Hmmm …Wonder what my chances of pulling that one off are LOL?!)





Oh my goodness…I can hear the screaming from here!

I know… and when he sees stuff THIS size it appears that he feels compelled to substantially increase the volume from the norm “required” for the ambulances, police cars, aeroplanes, helicopters and fire engines. After seeing these (sigh) I might be needing hearing aids sooner than I thought!
