Croquet



I have a discovered a love for croquet. Considering my paltry skills in sport, I suprised myself by being quite good at it. It's like golf, but you don't need the strength, and play is far more strategic. Maybe I should join a croquet club. Pity it has such a nerdy and unsexy reputation.

It was also invented by the Irish, but stolen by the English! Maybe they played with potatoes. How did women play it in those big trouncy dresses and corsetry? Jolly good show, what, what.
