I've had a couple of those. A little uncomfortable but nothing more. I didn't bother with an anaesthetic = just a throat spray.

Not sure that a throat spray will help Jay with his sitting problem..............

Our Daughter-in-law is a nurse in Endoscopy at the local hospital.

Is it true she took a rectal thermometer out of her pocket and said "Oh no, some @rsehole has got my pen."

Judging by the suggested mode of return travel, I suspect the throat spray would be somewhat less than effective.

Unless screaming is involved!

Edit: this what happens when you write a post, get distracted by work, and come back half an hour later and just hit `post`.

I had mine to investigate polyps in my stomach - hence the throat spray. The medics refer to the Endoscopy Department as 'the quick up and downers'.

I've got something very impressive written on my notes (probably involving biting) as I now get heavily sedated for any endoscopy. I still manage to get someone every time though.

I am watching a documentary about sharks. I did not realise they attack water skiers. You learn something every day.

Train them to go for jet skiers perhaps.

This Roy Scheider is a great source of information.

Wow, how do they work the controls with their fins?

[steelemonkey]

Oh, you got it all wrong, they eat helicopters.

They are attracted to pyramids.

I was thinking Roy.

Only ones with hanging bait.

I'm working on a project called "Fire Flow Systems".
Whenever my boss sends and email about it, he puts the subject "FFS".
It sends a momentary rise of panic through me wondering what he's annoyed about.

Someone I know was installation and service manager for a company called F*******s, they were having a back and to via email with a particularly dense customer, which resulted in Rob adding "RTFM" to the end of the email.
The email was brought up in a management meeting a couple of weeks later, where the political infighting was reaching a peak and knives were being sharpened.
Rob was asked to explain (from behind a smirk) what "RTFM" meant, with a smile he said "Read the F*******s manual"
Couple of months later, He was offered a big pay rise to join a competitor; He jumped at the chance.
