UK programme to give snoring the boot

If you regularly share your bed with someone who sounds like a cross between an old sick coal locomotive and a wheezy Alsatian barking its noggin off, then you'll likely be interested in something that's happening across the pond next month. The UK's first ever Stop Snoring Bootcamp will be kicking off in September, and the six participants will spend three days living under a military style regime where smoking and drinking alcohol are outlawed and a strict diet and oodles of exercise are the order of the day. Ear, nose and throat specialists will be on hand also to record and analyse participants' snoring patterns to check for any underlying medical conditions.

Unfortunately for their other halves who probably thought this would mean they'd get a few nights snore-free kip, it's reported that partners are to be brought along to assist with the rehabilitation effort.

D'oh!
