Sorry for getting in everybody's way
I WOULD like to apologise to the people of Sheffield (my home town) for getting in their way while they are using their mobile phones and looking in the opposite way to where they are walking.
And to the young grandmas and mothers who have to wait a few moments while I go around them as they amble along two or three abreast with their prams. I also find it difficult to stop when I walk into people who appear out of doorways after shopping and don't have the time to look and see if anyone is passing.
I would also like to thank the person who looked back to see if I was alright as I happened to be in the way as he dashed by, obviously on urgent business.
Roy Foster (age 74 years 6 months), Sheffield S13
