    Us Leighton boys obviously like to keep the NHS busy, though mine is to do with my nose and not my nuts. I have suffered for years with nosebleeds - that sounds a bit of a girly thing to complain about but when you get two or three a day for a period of a week or two every other month it is very annoying. For years my doc has wanted to cauterize my nose but I kept saying no. However the nosebleeds are gettig worryingly heavy now and very frequent so I am booked in to have it done.

    Has anybody else had it done, and how uncomfortable is it? The thought of Layton having his nuts done should help me when I have it done...

    Brother had it done , no problems. Don't take asprin it stops the blood from cloting.

    Blood pressure too high.

    I'm on BP medication, have been for a few years and will be for good. However it seems alarmingly high, 150/110 was my last reading despite improving my lifestyle; eating less rubbish, kicked the fags, doing more exercise.

    Well it is under observation which is great , the Doctor will be tracking your BP.

    They will also take into account that is normal for the pressure to be higher than normal during testing , as Hypertension will increase.

    Or wear some gloves when you're picking your nose.

    Or don't get it tested the day after Watford lose 3-1 at home to Bristol City!

    Lets just hope that the doctor that is doing your nose, hasn't just done Layton's op.

    Had this done when I was a boy. Guess what? Didn't stop a thing!!

    I heard they can do a similar treatment just quickly in the GP surgery now? Is this what he is offering? Or is it a full anaesthetic job?

    I used to be on that, but the side effects were horrendous. First I was negotiating the release of terrorists for shady oil deals in despotic countries, then I was playing fast and loose with safety and causing oil slicks off the SE coast of the USA.

    In the surgery with no anaesthetic. He very randomly compared having it done with eating wasabi sauce - unpleasant but bearable. The 1st of April is when I am having it done.

    Electrosurgery.

    Is this some sort of Pagan ritual.

    Similar, a thing length of metal that is red hot is poked up my Nordin Wooter and that burns off the blood vessels.

    Sounds like something they'd get a witchdoctor to do in Africa to ward of evil spirits.

    Speaking of which, I went on a crocodile spotting tour on Funzi island, Kenya. The river was full of fishermen, up to their waist in the water with nets. I asked the guide, aren't they worried about the crocodiles?

    "No," he said. "The Witchdoctor provides them with a magical powder, which they cut themselves and insert under the skin, to ward off crocodiles."

    "Does it work?" I asked
    "No, they are all going to die."

    Tomorrow is 'D' day for my Nordin Wooter, booked in for 16:10. It has been on my mind all week and worryingly, in an effort to make myself feel better, so have Laytons nuts...

    Apparently it bleeds on and off for a couple of days afterwards, should make me easy to spot in Coventry!

    Anyway , best of luck to you and your hooter.

    Not far off! It looked similar to a cooks match, but instead of being red hot there is a dollop of silver nitrate on it which they then poke up your nose. Unpleasant, but bearable. It stung like buggery for a few seconds but very quickly dropped down to a level comparable with putting too much horseradish on a chunk of beef. Streaming eyes and a streaming hooter, but hopefully that is the end of the nosebleeds.

    Ha! Everything seems in tact other than a nose which is running like Forrest Gump.

    If a bloke like that walked into the pub you couldn't help but stare, I know there must be some down sides to having three nostrils , but there must be some positives, or some party tricks he could perform that would just blow your mind away.

    Just hope he doesn't get hayfever.

    I was thinking by simply inserting some valves into his nostrils he could blow on his own trumpet.
