Re: Ear ache!!
Just got back from doc's ..... It's a very bad ear infection. Said he could have had it on holiday, but flying could have made it worse due to the ears popping. Anyway Anti-biotics and Ibuprofen now, and he is feeling pain free again. Poor little thing, nowt worse than tooth ache and ear ache

Yes, that is what I put it down to as well!! It was also very cold, not complaining, it was a welcome relief to dIve in the pool when the sun got too much!!
But I do think this is where he may have picked it up from.
Then the flying home has kicked it off big time!! The flight into Manchester was a bit rocky to say the least!! so plenty of ear popping.

Re: Ear ache!!
Pleased you went to the docs. Slinky .. was going on too long for a reaction to aeroplane pressure. He will be Ok soon, I am sure.
Think Royboy earache from swimming pools is just summat to do with moisture getting trapped, there again, I am not a medic.
