After my loss of consciousness a couple of weeks ago I was back at the doctor's for some tests. I had some blood taken for analysis and was also hooked up for an ECG.
First time I'd had one. There were wires attached to sticky pads around my heart and also to my wrists and ankles. It took longer to hook me up to the machine than for it to do the job and tell me that there was nothing wrong with my ticker. Good news.
How fortunate for this series of posts then that post-punk legends Wire have a song called Heartbeat. It's from their second album, Chairs Missing, which was released in 1978 and also contains the fantastic I Am the Fly.
