- "A seemingly nice and sunny morning at the ever lovely Kings Hall Road. There were 3 participants in this match - Nathan, me, and the dastardly wind. We both struggled with our serves and tried our best to adjust to the ball being blown long at one end and short at the other, and sometimes sideways! Still, we managed to have some great rallies with Nathan displaying some impressive net skills. Well played, Nathan." -- Lien
