And the doctor there said, you've got weeks to live.
So he came home and he lived for about three months.
I remember I'd made something out of balsa wood at school that I took him in hospital.
Actually, I remember it very vividly.
It had obviously been announced on the radio.
So the school secretary, we were both at the same primary school, had got us out and we were sitting on chairs in the entrance hall because they just assumed mum would come and get us.
And mum's thinking was, they'll have a normal day and then we'll...
then we'll share this news so we'd been sat for hours on the chairs and then mum came to get us and we went to the sweet shop which was only ever happened on a Friday usually on the way home and then we went home and then she told us so you knew something strange the teachers didn't tell you they just said your mum's coming to get you yes yeah um
Kind of, but, you know, I'm not that bright now, so I was even less at eight.
And you just get pushed... Life's just a series of experiences in a way, isn't it, at eight?
No.
Kind of, yeah.
I'd never pushed my mother on what was going on, and she never really felt like telling us, and it sort of didn't seem like my business in a way.
I found this out from...
My father's doctor, Dr. Russell Rees, who was a great guy, a Welsh GP and antique dealer, who I sort of hung out with later on when I was in my early 20s.
Not really.
Not really.
You're on the tip of a massive story that you probably don't want to hear.
No, I don't want to hear it.
I sort of think I had a dissatisfaction with my lot vis-à-vis my father after that, but not in a damaging way.
