Hnuergh!

Did players make those noises when I was I child? I don’t honestly remember, but that’s a mainly because I was usually upstairs in my bedroom for the entire duration of Wimbledon fortnight. My mum was addicted to Wimbledon, and would spend the entire two week period closeted in a darkened front room, avidly watching the tennis. Every now and then I would hear a scream and come running down the starers to find out what was wrong - it usually meant Jimmy Connors had lost an easy point or Virginia Wade had tripped over or something like that.

Continuing with the Wimbledon Swingball theme. I like the drawing of Jones in the last panel in this one.

Swingball

But it always happens when I play swingball. Real tennis (that's real lawn tennis, as opposed to Real Tennis) is beyond me - I've never played a rally that has lasted for longer than a serve and a return.
