Hi, I'm English too!!
I had the same problem with mine recently too and took him to the vet.
It turns out he had a urinry tract infection. He gave me an
antibiotic I had to squirt down his throat for 7 days and is all
disappeared just as quick as it appeared!
I suggest you pop him along to your nearest vet ASAP
[Moderator's Note:
antibiotics may also be a consideration if this is
an anal gland infection, but don't take "squirt
down throat literally" since I am sure the poster
knows to give medicines carefully so that they
won't be aspirated (which can cause aspiration
pneumonia)]
