There is a reference to Henry Healy's spam in one of the tracks on the selection ON THE WAY TO SONG and checking for the correct spelling for Healy this morning I came across the site below There were numerous references to the Grocer's which closed down throughout the City of Glasgow in 2009

OMG!!! 8O
What a coincidence. The first girl I ever really fancied
worked in Henry Healys under the Umbrella, I've seen
her a few times since then but guess what? I bumped
into her yesterday, (literally). TBH I was pretty well
lost for words, (makes a change for me). :oops:
Anyways my old granny always used Healys across
from the Eye Infirmary, (can't remember the name of
the street it was on). She always said that's where the
spam valley crowd got their meat. :wink:
The track, entitled Do You Want To Tell Me Again is no longer available on Bandcamp: it is the next in line for some dressing up
