Re: Lyle Foster on his battle with depression

Anyone who has suffered from depression wouldn’t wish it on their enemies. My description….it’s like the thickest, blackest fog but inside your head. It sucks every ounce of energy out of you. But you can beat it. It might be the hardest fight of your life, but you can win. Life can become good aga...

Re: Varifocals

On my fifth pair from Specsavers and never had any problems. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. The only time I experienced real difficulties was with Boots. It turned out that they had made a mistake in the prescription. As I said earlier, varifocals take some getting used to so don’t expect to find them...

Re: Varifocals

Used varifocals for years. They do take a lot of getting used to…so you need to persevere. If you’re still having a problem after several weeks, go back to the opticians as they can adjust how the frames sit on your nose and ears. I’ve done that on two occasions and a slight adjustment has solved th...

His timing and power were superb. Absolutely agree that watching him in full flow was a delight. He wasn’t a bad fielder either.

Re: Chelsea

As far as I’m concerned, Chelsea are one of the clubs that represent all that’s wrong with football. They think that they deserve to be a top six club able to bend the rules to suit themselves. Never liked them since the days of “Chopper” Harris.

Re: Your biggest sporting achievements?

Once faced an over off Bob Willis in the nets at Edgbaston. He bowled off about half a dozen paces - never saw one delivery and only got bat on ball once which would have been caught by the keeper. Goodness knows what it must have been like facing him of his full run up.
