Racketeering

Inspired by Wimbledon, I decided to play a bit of tennis on my Wii yesterday. I dutifully cleared the floor so I had enough room to jump around. A tense doubles match ensued. Picture the scene. It's match point. The crowd is waiting with baited virtual breath. Letting out a Sharapova-esque grunt, Wilkin goes for a particularly tricky overhead. And smashes into the paper lampshade, punching a large hole in it and causing a rain of dust (onto the clean sheets), such as the world has never seen.

Which is why, Gentle Reader, exercise is not to be encouraged. It causes damage, may well make you lose your deposit and makes a horrible mess. Plus today I can’t lift my arms above my shoulders.
