I take your 1 month contribution into consideration and agree I may have been ott

All that withstanding, this used to be a forum for what I consider weighty topics amongst the the banter. Perhaps wrongly, I thought how to remove a bit of glue a tad trivial.

Hey each to their own.

Taking your 140 months into consideration (wtf???????) I must say I agree.
Back in the good old days there used to be really good topics on here with fascinating subjects like "How to plant iris bulbs"
I'm sure deep down you think that is more worthwhile than "how to remove glue residue" but nobody else does.

You have to be joking. You own a prestige car and have no idea how to remove the residue from a tax disc holder!!!

And this...
THe inference that owning an Aston gives you the super powers to know everything is possibly the most cringeworthy thing I've read on PH.
I am not 100% convinced it's the OP who is the idiot on this thread.

I have to agree with Lady Topaz.
This topic is below the standard I would have expected to appear on a forum dedicated to the ownership of Aston Martins.
It would never have been allowed to be posted on that other distinguished forum the AMOC.
For example on that forum many pages are devoted to "redtrouserwkeritis" a topic started by that venerable and beloved AM owner and sage Russell.
No one can doubt the apposite value of that topic to the owners of our esteemed marque.
I will conclude my contribution by asking if anyone has a solution to the following problem I have as it is causing me some distress.
Of late I have had an accumulation of ear wax which has all but obliterated the delightful sound of my V12 DB9 Volante.
So if you can advice me on a course of action that will restore my hearing to it's normal excellent aural capacity I will be forever in your debt.

Getting your butler to syringe your ears out should do the trick

Hope that was useful

I have asked both my butler and my Ladyboys.
Although sympathetic to my plight they tell me that it is not in their terms of work contract.
As you know it is getting very difficult to find good staff nowadays,not like the old days when my butler would both syringe my ears,clip my toenails and detail the Aston.

You've already got the old mans Aston. Its not earwax its old age. Therefore there is only one course of action left to you in your dottage. Trade in the DB9 for one of these.



Hopefully it will come without a tax disc holder as well

Mmmm,that's quite a nice looking car Neal.
As usual you have chosen to resort to disparaging remarks and as usual I shall turn the other cheek.
I can assure you that my age has nothing to do with my aural dilemma.
All my other bits are in excellent working order as my female companions will testify if required to.
Old man's Aston.......purleeze.

I knew that,no need to be patronising.
Thinking I might give up on my search for a mako blue DBSV and go for the AC,similar color,do they do a Volante ?

You're looking at this completely the wrong way around. See it as a blessing.
THe solution to this non-problem is to get your mechanic to put on a much louder exhaust and then steadfastly refuse to listen to anyone else with your new hearing.

Then it becomes much easier with your many ladies:

Larfs mistress: Your exhaust is very loud
Larf: I am sorry I cannot hear you. Earwax you see? Anyway anal tonight?
Larfs mistress: No way. I hate it.
Larf: I am glad you like it. Settled then. FOr the avoidance of doubt I will not be able to hear a single thing you say henceforth.

Sorry geezer,but I cannot bring myself to have discourse with you given your ridiculous nomenclature.
However,thank you for your contribution.

Wasn't being patronising, was just assuming you had alzheimers at your age

Volante you say?

I agree it is unfortunately a sign of the times that the hired help is not actually that helpful anymore, perhaps the louder exhaust suggested by another poster is the way to go.

It's either that or you will have to source some more willing help and put your butler out to pasture.

just ask bamford rose.....i am sure you will recieve a full and lengthy explanation on the correct procedure to remove said sticky stuff....and of course recomendations to enhance your now non sticky area.....or just use soapy water and a bit of elbow...

Thanks Tony.
Given your suggestion a try but finding my elbows are a bit too big to go into my ear 'oles.
I have spoken to BR,but they told me to bugger off and called me a Tosser,and I didn't even mention that I knew you.

A chap in the very big house down the road found that asking the butler to blow hard into his left ear removed the wax through his right ear. It then made an interesting piece of modern art on the wall which his friends in red trousers thought was worth a fortune.

Good idea,where's Tracy Emin when you need her ?
Always up for a blow job........
I worry about those pics on the AMOC forum of men in red trousers,why do they always take bum shots ?
