'An electrifying account of gambling addiction ... compelling' - The Times



'Searingly honest ... should be in the hands of anyone who has eyed a bet' - Daily Mail

'A remarkable piece of work' - The Cricketer



With a foreword by Marcus Trescothick.

For more than 12 years, Patrick Foster lived a double life. Turning 31, a popular and sociable young teacher and former professional cricketer, he had a lovely girlfriend and a supportive family. But he was hiding a secret and debilitating gambling addiction from even those closest to him.


Huge bets had led to huge debts, thousands of lies, and consequences for his mental health that pushed him to the edge of the platform at Slough station, where he was moments from taking his own life in March 2018.


That month Patrick had turned a eE30 bet into eE28,000, then lost eE50,000 on a single horse, Might Bite, in the Cheltenham Gold Cup, watching the race in a silent classroom as his students undertook a mock exam in front of him. In his desperation, he had taken out every possible loan, and borrowed money from family, friends and even the parents of children he taught. Although his life was unravelling around him, he could not stop.




You might think that this is just one man's story. But problem gambling affects one in 200 people in the UK alone. Hundreds lose their lives annually as a result. The industry is worth more than eE14 billion.

Might Bite is a shocking, cautionary tale of just how easy it is to fall victim to the insidious lure of 'winning big'. And of how recovery is pos

Solid Metal Razor
Color: Polished Silver
I’ve been using this for months to clean up for light dermaplaning, and I really like it. The metal handle feels solid and easy to control, which makes it feel safer than the cheap plastic razors. The blades are sharp but gentle if you use a light hand. It also comes with a lot of replacement blades, which is nice since you don’t have to replace the whole razor and it saves you a ton of money. It took me a try or two to get used to the weight, but now I prefer it. Overall, it feels well-made and works exactly as expected.

Great razors!

Sharp, convenient. I appreciate that they’re a bulk pack! They work really well on both face and head hair, and fit perfectly into my japantools razor.

Fantastic Dermaplane Razor that you can replace blades on
Color: Polished Rainbow
This Dermaplane Razor is great. It gives a close shear and has a nice grasp in the hand, plus it's pretty cool looking! I'm happy to have a metal razor that I can replace the blades on and ditch the plastic throw away type. The ZOMCHI Dermaplaner is far superior. I am pleased with this purchase.
