Can't comment on the colour of an earwig but my tinnitus sings the whole time at around 4800hz so I can sympathise with anyone who has similar, sweet dreams Mr stubby😁

I have a tinnitus that I only notice when all the ambient noise is quiet . ( LIKE TRYING TO SLEEP ) its  just a hiss . If I consciously stop and think about it I can hear it anytime but usually just when all else is quiet .

About the same pitch for me, I cannot decide if higher or lower as I can only here the test tone alone if volume maxed out yet the whistling in my head is clear all the time.

 

I can no longer hear skylarks which is a disappointment.

Same here fortunately it doesn't bother me so doesn't wind me up.

No same here . I have got used to it over the years and it kinda seems normal now .

Ted triggered a bout of pink floyd lyrics, time. Very apt I'd say as most lyrics to that song would do as worthy "midnight musings" in my mind.

 

All this talk of the Floyd made me remember that my much missed old farmer friend used to shoot with Nick Mason. Knew he had a house in Corsham but I'd never felt the need to do a Google search on which house ........so I did ...... bought his house off our new Queen.

Instead of sleeping I was thinking of the oddity of life with random coincidence and wondering if drummers like terriers as much as Queens do 🤔

Surely everyone loves terriers!

Back to my musings.

Why did the US invent, develop and fall in love with the Gradall,

But we in the UK or Europe, did not, preferring the to me, far more versitile digger/excavator, courtsey of JCB.

P.S.

Just watched a lovely video about the Keller Brothers(from a family of 14 btw, and guessing the winter nights were and still are long and cold in Minnesota!) inventing the Bobcat skidsteer.
