Comment from Adri7enne
Damn, that was hard to read! Mostly because tears were running down by face and I had to stop to wipe my eyes constantly. Ruined another couple sleeves. You're a nut case! So freaking funny! The farty sofas and the woman sitting in a "farty leather chair" with the "guiltiest expression I have ever seen on anybody, and I used to be a policeman." I must have read that three times, and it cracked me up every time.
The bib! It was probably meant for a shorter guy. Hell, that must have been funny.
There were so many good lines in that. I laughed all the way through it. I wiped my eyes, I leaned back into the sofa, I roared and scared the dog. I said:"He's crazy, the man's bloody crazy!" One of the best I've ever read. Dare I say it, even better than George Carlin. I'll die laughing one of these days, but what a way to go! What fun, Snod.
I did say "Poor Darling" once, when you write:"This was a little painful, but Im a man. I could take it." Yeah, you're a brave fellow!
You're the best, snod. The funniest.

Thank you. My wife still sniggers over it occasionally, when she thinks I don't notice.

This story had me feeling bad for men! Very good description, but the end completely grossed me out. I think I actually gagged. Very funny though!

Thanks for the review

Funny, Indeed! I tell you, you made me feel the pain and the all the uncertainty that goes hand in hand with a surgery of this nature. The story was well written and it flows smooth. Good writing, I will say again!

First I hope your doing ok in the hospital. I haven't seen you post so hope your just resting. Love this. Your just the best. Always such a good writer. You not only have fun with your work but you bring it out showing us that, different style in your work that has all the sides and putting it together makes one great tale. I hope someday to be able to write as well as you. You know that I enjoy doing fun things when I make up stories but my grammar sucks. Just seeing how you can bring out humor with respect for your work is interesting to me. I tend to get carried away and begin to sound hill-billish. If you wanted to write Shakspear you could and that shows in the way you write. Is any of this even making sense. I've been up all night, couldn't sleep. So please forgive, tell you want how about this- Love your work Sir, and Best wishes in the contest.

Damn, now I'm going to have to widen the doors to fit my head through. You're too kind.
I have been home since Saturday evening, but today I am feeling very good, thanks. I shall start writing again shortly, if only to fight the massive boredom
Comment from Savery
Oh...you brave man. This was very well written, very clever with your word choices. I love the bit about the nurse asking for computer help! I don't understand why you kept changing the doctor's name. I understand not using his real name, but why all the others? The room felt very crowded. Entertaining. Thank you for sharing this.
Notes:
I don't quite understand this sentenced. This is before the operation so how does she already know about the "untidiness"? "She was only sorry that there was all that untidiness still left down there after the operation."
?It?s quite crowded in here today?, (the apostrophe goes before the quotes Here. explained Doctor Bling
how to sterilise (sterilize) men
cauterises (cauterizes) his plumbing
These last 2 spellings may be geographical ??
Just my thoughts.

Men tend to be 'untidy' down below, with bits interupting the streamlining. Women's bits, being internalised, leave a much tidier nether area. OK, I'm movining on from that subject.
The spellings are indeed English. Thanks for the quote spag.
I'm glad you liked it
Comment from Barbara Scheepers
Dear snodlander,
You are one of the few brave men who take the snip - its usually the wife who has to do it, and her snip is a lot worse! So bravo!! The story is well written and very amusing - I enjoyed it. Godd luck with the competition.

Comment from Moira
There was a lot of great imagery in your tale and being a woman, I couldn't say that I "feel" your pain, yet I am not without sympathy. It kind of make me hesitate for a mere fraction of a second before bringing this same little adventure up to my other half. Hee Hee.
Oh and I must agree on that invitation to dinner at the Doc's house, a definate pass.

Comment from IndianaIrish
I'm sorry I didn't catch this while I could still give you a six for this one, Snod. Absolutely hilarious and entertaining...I love snippy-clippy stories. The tale of your grand suffering deserves to be in this collection of the month's best. Thanks for sharing your tale of WHOA!
Smiles,
Indy :>)

Comment from Rai2
Awww, I just had to giggle. Your humour is what might be called cheeky teenaged boy humour but you get away with it! (I have a 14 year old son, so I know what that is) Your descriptions are very funny and your sarcasm is clear but understandable under the circumstances. Very well written, couldn't spot any mistakes. Good luck with the contest!

do you know, it was a total revelation to me when someone called me sarcastic. I never realised. Now my bosses require me to apologise for my sense of humour before each course I deliver.
thnks for the review. I'm glad you got a giggle from it
Comment from DamienDarke
Oh this was to too funny.. Please remind me to never go to Snodland Surgery and I definitely never want to be snipped by the good doctor whose office is in the cupboard under the stairs.. Oh I love the note! how rich, and the pc questions before cutting.. I loved it. Great story
