Ghostly night-time Badminton Match

Finally an evening warm enough to eat out under the vines with friends. We cooked delicious monkfish and bacon skewers on a hotplate at the table. It was only after the second battle of wine that it seemed like a good idea to play badminton in the dark. The boys marked out a court on the grass using strings of fairy lights, whilst the adults topped up their glasses once more. Only once definitively beaten by the kids did we realise that we not only had the disadvantage of age and fitness, but also that the inebriation had not improved our game.

Hard to take photos in the dark - and they boys look like apparitions, you can just make out the shuttlecock heading towards the photographer.
