At first, he thought it was an infection that would go away by itself.
When it didn't, he sought medical advice, " talking in the blokey way that men often talk to a doctor, saying 'I'm sure it's nothing, I'm sorry for coming'. "
He was sent for a biopsy but was later told his results had been lost in transit. He only discovered he had cancer when someone called to arrange another biopsy and told him it was " to see what stage of cancer you have".
A consultant later told him he had throat cancer that had spread to his lymph gland.
" So that's my current state of affairs, " he concluded. " I have cancer, but it's a cancer that can be got rid of. "
