Along with: "whats the difference between a chiropodist and a podiatrist" this is a question I get asked a lot: "why do you do feet?". To which my stock answer is "I don't just do the feet, I do the person attached to them". Last week i was with a patient that has been coming to me for best part of a decade, she's well into her eighties but you wouldn't think so, when she decided to tell me a litte bit more of her experiences in Plymouth during the second world war- As a naval base city, it was absolutely flattened by the Nazi's.

In Plymouth there is a street called Union Street, these days it's known for fighting and grotty night-clubs; it was once a place of theatres, cinema's, drinking houses and fighting. Anyway back to the plot, this particular patient was telling me how when she was a little girl, she was standing in Union Street when a German plane came flying up above the road, shooting up anything below it, with bullets breaking the ground either side of her like you see in the movies. She didn't know what was happening, but the local hairdresser luckilly saw what was going down; he ran out, grabbed her and pulled her into his shop doorway. This and other stories like this, are why I "do" the people attached to the feet. Love them all. And the scrotes that think they are "hard" down Union Street this coming Friday night, haven't got a clue what "hard" means.
