  • "It was the perfect Sunday afternoon for tennis. As David and I entered the courts there was a sense that a titanic battle loomed. The sun hid away behind the clouds as we drew our racquets. The battle began, cannons for forehands and defensive shields for backhands! David drew first blood and went into a well earned lead. I threw everything at him and fought my way back. The sun peeped through the clouds again as the entertainment proved irresistible. Wow, 2 hours flew by. It was a great game and thank you David! You’re a great player and best of luck with your last game! "  -- Mo
