'I don't have hay fever!' says smug man who has no need to carry tissues.

Across the UK, thousands of people are now suffering from itchiness, bulbus eyes and runny noses- but the worst thing about hay fever? 'the smug people who don't have it,' states hay fever Guru, Neil Dong.

Mr Dong has studied pollen for over a decade and believes that symptoms are bought on by 'rage' when you see someone next to you who has a dry nose and who can breathe without sounding like a donkey.

Clive Andrews, from Maldon in Essex, was sent to A&E after his wife threw a vase of flowers at him with 'witch-like venom'. The woman's 'bestie' stopped us to comment on what happened: 'when WILL men listen? Giving Sharon flowers gives Sharon hives! Plus, her mouth swells so much that she just can't speak, sometimes for a whole week. He does it every year- always on his birthday!'

Clive Andrews has been hailed a 'clever man' by MOSS (Men Of Sensational Substance) whose spokesperson has 'kicked himself' for not thinking of this himself. 'Hay fever doesn't have to be a BAD thing!' he says, somewhat gleefully.
