This dinner time went into town and had my ear re pierced i have had the original piercing done in my left ear well over twenty years ago when i was working away as a shop fitter doing kitchen displays for M.F.I . in London . I had it pierced in the lobe at the bottom of the ear the new one is higher up in the middle region i have used my original ear ring and had no wish to have a stud put in , it only cost a fiver i think i paid a similar price when i first had it done all them years ago which included the cost of the stud .
