We gathered by the tennis courts for a rematch with the infamous wrongly-laid Sydney Gardens path.
This epic battle started with a strong opening set back in May and some strong opening service sending the old path down the lines into storage ready for the next play.
A stunning comeback in the second set delivered the path back to its rightful location to level the score.
For this third set we had three enormous bags of hogging which needed transporting (the deliverers had clearly heard we know our way around a wheelbarrow at GoodGym Bath and had handily delivered them to the far side of the park for us) to top off the path so that hopefully it’ll finally be Game, Set and Path to us!
Today’s play featured some mixed doubles with Dan and Ellie covering the side-lines and tidying up some of the borders, while the rest of the team took up the wheelbarrows between us to serve up some ace delivery of the majority of the topping onto the path.
The night was drawing in though, and these tennis courts aren’t covered so eventually we had to stop play with the match still in the balance.
Tune in for the next instalment (or come along and join in!) to see how this delicately poised matchup turns out…
