Hi, Throughout Foggy’s life I have made a point of saying I am lucky enough to not suffer from M.E./C.F.S chronic pain. However, things have started to change over the past 3 months. I am currently undergoing tests and physio to try to deal with an extremely painful right arm. RSI, Carpal Tunnel and Tendonitis …
Hi, Foggy is currently in Spain for the Real Madrid vs Sevilla football match tonight. Going to this match means that, so far in this campaign, he will have done sport on two different continents.
