The Badminton Trial
Well, after about three years away, I went back down to our local club last night by popular demand. ;o) Oh the shame of it, after 5 minutes on court, I looked like I had run a marathon. The court felt so much bigger than it used to do. But I persevered and quite enjoyed myself.
Much of the old gang were there including a couple of my old partners. I even won a game!
And more importantly, although my body felt a bit run through the mill, my back was on the whole fairly consistent. I will ease my way gently in. It does seem weird that I can actually play squash with none of this trouble but I thought as much.
Well, it was just so great being back on court that I have resolved to keep going back and maybe being able to manage 10 mins before exhaustion kicks in next time. You never know, I may even manage a game of singles again one day.

If I did ride a horse, the poor thing would have significantly more back pain than me :p
so those comments i have heard about you been spineless are false then :0)
Certainly, no-one ever accused me of being red and white. ;o)
never said red and white, said spineless. u want to get that dyslexia sorted
Sorry to be ambiguous, I was using it as a synonym ;o)
you didnt need to insert a hyperlink for synonym on my account but maybe it was for other readers of this. as far as i know spineless and red and white are about as different in meaning as sat nav and direct route are to you :o)
touche (I'll spare you the hyperlink ;o) )
Maybe you two should start a fitness campaign together - it sounds like you're both about the same level of fitness! :-p you could have a competition!
