What's it all about?
New town, new doctor. Visit to the medical centre to register and the basic tests; urine and blood pressure. Blood pressure is cause for concern so it's back a few days later to test the presure and give a blood sample. The results come in, the doctor writes to me "I would appreciate if you were to call my secretary in order to make an appointment . . . "

Despite good reason to complain, Dury (1942 - 2000) chose creativity and an interest in others. Polio disabled him and, ultimately, cancer killed him. I saw the Blockheads in Edinburgh in 1984, the venue had no licence so you could take your own drink in with you - a good reason to be cheerful.
