11.5.20 Saved by the Ball

Good morning everybody and I'm sure you are all as excited as we are about the recent developments regarding the lockdown. The children especially are beside themselves with joy at the prospect of being able "to play sports like golf, basketball, tennis and fishing with members of the same household". To prepare ourselves for the much anticipated re-introduction of these old familial favourites on Wednesday, we have been reacquainting ourselves with the world of Sport! As you can see we aren't hugely well resourced with equipment but the children have done an admirable job of improvising with everyday household objects - necessity is the mother of invention! They have based their new game on an interesting blend of suitably British sports; cricket, tennis, gymnastics, soccer, binge drinking and full contact rugby. Of course, all this fresh air and exercise is particularly timely as we all need to do our patriotic best and stay in tip top physical shape so that we can stay as alert as possible at all times and control that virus!
