New toys for my ears

I arrived home this evening to discover that my Isolate ear protectors have arrived in time for me to stand next to 30-odd drummers at Samhain.

Fifteen minutes later it turns out that I have one Medium ear and one Small one. And that when I have them carefully positioned in my ear canal I can wear the largest headphones I have, turned to max volume, playing Rock and Roll (Will Take You To The Mountain) and not have it feel too loud.

I'm very happy with my new purchase.
