    I've got a spot on the end of my nose.

    Do you think it could be carb icing?

    I don't do diets. That's probably why I'm fat.

    Drink some anti-freeze to be on the safe side.

    No, if anything slightly hot and dry. Red, it is.

    I still think it might be carb icing though.

    Connect a bit of wire to each terminal of your battery, and then
    attach one wire to each nostril. Instant carb heat.

    That should sort the problem, one way or the other.
