Get well soon, Joe Sayers
September 4, 2010 
Ey up,
A heartfelt “Get Well Soon” from everyone at Kitman Towers to Joe Sayers. Joe will miss the rest of the season after being laid low on the eve of the championship game at Old Trafford by something called Post-Viral Fatigue Syndrome. Apparently that’s an energy sapping condition that can leave you “barely able to climb a flight of stairs” – a terrifying thought for those of us with no downstairs toilet and a frisky bladder.
Hopefully Joe will be back feeling 100% for the start of next season, as none of us want to see him become the first cricketer to take the field in a mobility scooter since Jimmy Ormond returned to the Oval after an unsuccessful off-season at adult fat camp.
Some of you might remember that the last Yorkshire player to suffer a serious illness was Simon Guy, back at the start of the 2009 season. You might also remember I helped in his recovery process by posting this image on site:
This was very much pitched at Simon’s main interest – things you should grab with both hands if they fly in your direction.
Joe of course is a more cerebral man. An Oxford Physics graduate. Someone who’d watch a subtitled film for pleasure rather than just to impress girls. For him I reproduce an image of the Brunel SP500 Infinity Microscope:
There’s a lovely pair of ocular lenses on that beauty, I think we can all agree…
Si’thee next season Joe,
Len
