I played tennis a lot when I was growing up - mainly in Hong Kong at the Ladies Recreation Club (LRC) where I spent many a Saturday morning playing with my friends. I was good at it, not great but good enough to play a couple of games, have long rallies and win shots. I could serve, volley, and I always hit straight shots (never spinning the ball at all).
So I discovered that a couple of my friends here play tennis semi-regularly! So I asked them for a game. Adrian set up the court and on a lovely winter's morning we played a game. Hit the ball around for a bit of a warm up, chose our teams and then played a set and a bit. It was great fun! It all came back to me after a while too. I think we all produced some winning shots, we all hit a ball over the fence by accident and we all had fun.
Followed by a recovery breakfast, what a great way to spend the morning, I think I might do that again!
