Hang up your Chisels and Plane blades and take a load off with a recently turned goblet of your favourite poison, in the lounge of our Gentlemen's (and ladies) Club.

Got to share this ...

Had a colonoscopy recently (all clear) and had an application on hold for some critical illness cover pending the results. Rang the insurance company today to report back. Conversation went as follows...

"After the procedure were you diagnosed with a hiatus hernia ?"

"No" stifles snigger

"A stomach ulcer ?"

"No" struggles to stop laughing

" Oesophogeal cancer ?" struggles to stop laughing

"A duodenal ulcer ?"

"No" bursts out laughing and apologises to the customer agent.


Couldn't make it up.

Maybe they were taught that when finished at the bottom end they whip the pipe out and just shove it down the top end.

May be they thought doctor had an extra long instrument used on you and it went in one end and out the other.

That was one of the 'jests' that patients have used in the past ...ie have you reached my tonsils....(and which they've heard them all). That is apart from my lass who when I said 'Have you found Lord Lucan yet?' hadn't got a clue what I was on about!
