Fordham on the mend




DARTS champion Andy Fordham is reportedly recovering well after a minor stroke.
A message posted on his website says the star has suffered slight muscle wastage in the leg and his speech is slightly affected following the stroke.
The 45-year-old former publican of The Rose in Dartford is said to have lost weight.

He is also planning to return to competitive darts tournaments, the website reports.
It reads: "After losing a considerable amount of weight and undergoing medical treatments, he has received a much-needed kick-start to a healthier lifestyle, which medical professionals insist he must maintain in order to remain fit.
"He would once again like to thank the thousands of fans and well-wishers for the get-well messages he has received and looks forward to playing competitive darts again very soon."
Mr Fordham, known as The Viking, spent three weeks in hospital following the stroke last month.
