I am just back from a game of badminton. I had one of those terrible games where it feels as if someone has replaced your body with an uncoordinated sack of potatoes. It felt as if my brain was unconnected to my body. Neurons fired. But they did not carry the normal instructions. Instead of "Twitch right bicep, and smash the shuttlecock downwards with manly force" the neurons instead said "Lumber helplessly around the court like a grounded lungfish."
Actually a grounded lungfish would probably have had a better backhand than me tonight. There are several grounded lungfish who would be several places above me in the league of crap badminton players. Here is how the table of that league would look -
Anne Widdicomb - 34 points
Grounded Lungfish - 30 points
A brick - 25 points
Ro-land off of Grange Hill - 22 points
Steven Hawking - 14 points
Me - 0 points
