I didn't want to get explicit, but I meant the desperate urgency to spend every spare moment 'together' {ahem} wears off after a few months. I'm not that much of a curmudgeon BB.

Stop squabbling the pair of you. You are both prickly curmudgeons and keep me completely entertained. Those mufflers (what on earth are they called) Peltor Tactical 6-5. Don't think the plastic spngy ear bit does unpeel so is it the layer of foam in the earpiece itself do you think?

So you can hear what everyone is saying. But not the bangs. Amazing things. (I hope that you all appreciate the fluffy feminine element introduced into this ever so usually macho part of the forum. )

The black bits that go around your ear; you hook your fingers under them and pull them off. Then lift off the foam pad and the batteries are underneath.

Me and EV have been together 13 coming on 14 years and spend (almost) every minute of the day together.

It's been a few months and it gets better and better. Although I will not be sitting between him and his son again if they intend to compete singing the gloria bits during Christmas carols. Umm, are you absolutely sure that the black bits unhook, they seem very securely fixed on to me. (Sorry, being a pain but they are scarily expensive things if I damage them at all.)

I did demonstrate it to you at the time. Cast your mind back, through the mists of time.

They can be awkward to removed in that they don't come off easily but come off they do. You may see a little recess in the sides which, if you're careful, you can use the blade of a small screwdriver to prise them off but you risk damaging the ear defenders or yourself if you slip.
