But:
To pee or not to pee, that is the question.
Whether it is nobler in the mind to allow gravity it's demands
By frequent visits to that place where relief is to be found.
Or to deny all liquids to the chest after the bewitching hour
Which would otherwise assist in the dissipation of evil substances.
To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub.
Excellent Don! Very cleverly put, and something many of us can identify with I'm sure. 
lovely way of describing it 😃 xxx
Love it.
You have now set a precedent as the resident satirist.
Next one please.
Or maybe a competition?
Don't encourage me, you will regret it 
What is this evil substance that I see before me
Which hath appeared without invitation
Up on my handkerchief of finest linen
Can it be the result of much huffing and puffing?
Is this what my endeavours have bought forth?
I fear it is.........but wait.
Is this not the success I seek,
I believe it is.
Oh joy.
You started all this verse up, Don
For us to think and ponder on
It's difficult for us to see
How you avoid the need to pee.
Thick mucus lying on the chest
Is bad...perhaps a pee is best?
Hi DonR I can relate to your situation but they say you should drink about 2L of water a day I get thirsty and have a dry mouth because of my inhaler you please one end and vex the other 😆
With apologies to poets:
The quantity of mucus is not strained.
It droppeth, as does Niagra Falls, from heaven
Upon the hankie beneath: it is twice blest;
It blesseth him that coughs and him that spits out.

So very well done Don. Xxx
Just hope you're not on diuretics like me Don, as we men of a certain age face that mighty dilemma every night. Took my Nasal Vent consultant a while to understand why I only slept for 5 hours at a time
No I'm not on diuretics and I'm hoping to sort myself out without them
ITS A DOG’S LIFE !
