Putting it straight

After linear man blipped his wall last week I was in two minds to whether to post this given how dismissive he was of my attempts then and the fact that I know he'll be at this one with a ruler, a plumb line and a spirit level. Anyhoo, it's all I have.

Tonight I played my first matches for the club tournament and put on a shocking display of rotten tennis, bad-temperedness and bloodcurdling shrieks for the gallery. I played with my new 'enlarged sweet spot' racket (sorry wingpig, racquet) and a fat load of good it did; I may have been better playing with an enlarged sweet. My mixed doubles partner showed an endless amount of patience and tongue-biting and we limped through to the next round.

Afterwards I popped round to Lady F's to collect a rug and admire the huge amount of packing she's done. There's going to have to be a trailer for all her camera bags alone. SooB and MAiT, she tried her methods of sabotage by tempting me with a biscuit but I resisted, so hopefully my 98.86% will remain intact.

Her firstborn was there too and we had a great laugh and a chat where even more things were put straight. Those two ladies are the best.
