Hi neighbours,

Many people setting up paddling pools for their children this summer will be breaking the law - are you one of them?

Any pool, fixed or portable, deeper than 400mm is now subject to safety provisions under the Building Act, meaning there a quite a few rules you probably aren't even aware of.

For example, do you have a 1.2-metre fixed childproof fence with a self-closing gate opening outwards?

What are your thoughts on paddling pool safety? If faced with an inspection, would your pool set-up pass? Do you think all these rules are essential? What are your tips for setting up a paddling pool safely?

Ear infections are very common in children but often occur in adults of any age. The main symptoms are earache and feeling unwell. Painkillers are the most common treatment as antibiotics are not usually helpful. For most people the infection normally clears within a few days.

Most ear infections are either Outer Ear Infections (Otitis Externa) or Inner Ear Infections (Otitis Media). The main differences between these two types of ear infections are as below:

Inner Ear Infections:
- Usually affects children
- Normally result from viruses e.g. cold and flu
- Affects the inner ear. This is the Eustachian tube which runs from the eardrum to the back of the nose.

Outer Ear Infections:
- Usually affects adults between the ages of 45 to 75
- Normally result from things entering the canal e.g. eczema, water or using ear plugs
- Affects the ear canal. This is the tube which runs between the outer ear and the eardrum.

Ear infections can cause all sorts of problems, as can earache, glue ear and tinnitus. Don’t forget we offer a free ear health assessment with a no wax, no fee guarantee - so come and see us so Anne can take go over your ear history, take a look in your ears and recommend a course of action to help your health improve.

Our booklet guide How to Survive an Ear Infection (Plus Other Health Issues that Occur in Ears) is packed full of useful information about ear infections, glue ear, earache and tinnitus. Normally priced at $19.99, our guide is free to our clients and to referring health professionals.
