I had my left ear pierced nearly 30 years ago, on a sudden whim, whilst working away from home. When I mentioned this to my parents on the usual "Friday night 'phone call home" they went ballistic !! I kept the sleeper in for about ten days and then removed it and the hole healed up of course. I have thought about having both ears done on a few occasions recently and this time I will make sure that they establish.
