Boiled Head

It’s a long story but the moans of this particular boiled head (slap head is so…violent!) reminded me of the time when the old ticker gave us all a fright. In the middle of Cantabria I was dispatched to see an ancient Spanish cardiologist at the local polyclinic. Excellent service! We chatted about this and that and he asked some questions and gave some advice.

Did I drink?

Shuffle, cringe, squirm. Yes I did! What did I drink.? Red wine…

Of course, no, but did I drink alcohol. Whisky, spirits…? No. Good.

I must walk, yes it is cold in the winter but I must walk. If it is very cold I must put a newspaper between my chest and my shirt. It will be fine. El Pais is usually good!
