PARDON??? - 15 02 13

People ask me about Axel's ear-defenders. They are not head phones but ear-defenders from the builders' merchants. Axel is very sensitive to sound and after walking around for a week with his fingers in his ears we bought him a pair. He is relieved. You can get posher designs, more effective and subtle but Axel uses them to express his anger by smashing them into the wall so we've opted for the cheaper design. The merchants kindly bulk order and sell them to us for less. 

I am quite grateful to the defenders for the way they sign-post 'different' to the public. I sense they invite the public to think again about what they are seeing. Axel looks so fine, the ear-defenders say judge the behaviour, us, again. 

He wears them all the time. In the bath, the pool, to sleep.

Imagine the world was screaming at you all the time.
