Deep Throat

A hospital consultant is to conduct a clinical trial to test if singing exercises can reduce or eradicate snoring.

More than 100 patients at the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital are to participate in a programme of exercises that are designed to strengthen the throat. Snorers and their families who volunteer for the tests have been warned that the songs have been chosen for their therapeutic effect rather than their beauty, and include
grunting noises.
I tried sprays, a Chinese ring, and even a device clamped in my mouth to reduce my snoring.

However, I have been going to the gym most weekday lunchtimes and doing some cardio work since the beginning of June and - touch wood - that seems to be doing the trick and domestic harmony is returning.
