Welcome Jonny to the snot club - I hope you never ride with congested nostrils again. There is no going back to mucosa.

What would your mum say? Taps on the door, 'Hello is Jonny in? We want to go for a bike ride, can he come out?'. 'No he's picked up some awful habits from you CC Riff Raff (Capitalised for importance factor) and he is grounded and we've sold Chitty on to teach him to be the good boy we raised him as'.
