I would guess that there are all sort of checks carried out first. You know, general health, heart checks, blood pressure, previous operations, dental problems, obesity, diabetes, x-ray history, eyesight, skin complaints, hearing, stomach disorders, gout, ingrown toenails, acne etc. etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walking football, sheesh, away and play bowls, golf, snooker, darts, anything but walking about looking a twat.

Greedy Jambo Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 (edited) I'd be up for some walking football, I'm not sure how it would benefit me fitness wise though, if i'm not allowed to move any faster. I'd probably end up just taking pot shots from 40 yards out. Edited April 18 by Greedy Jambo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
