Margarita Time


The bonspiel has started; the curling’s sublime;

Ice melds with tequila, triple sec and lime.

New friendships are made,

That will never fade.

So, what time is it? Margarita time!

The Eastbourne International


Tennis in Eastbourne is a family affair,

At which nobody knows quite what to wear.

Cold, windy or warm?

Or, perhaps, a thunderstorm,

Leaving everyone present with wet frizzy hair…

Bills Win!


Alexa said Buffalo beat the Packers,

So I left to party with the Bills Backers!

But then you called to say,

It wasn’t actually Green Bay?

Just the workmates of the Costco Stackers…

Bathroom Cricket


‘Cricket in the bathroom!’ I hear you say,

So I grab my bat and prepare for play.

But there’s no wicket,

Just a wee bush-cricket,

Who takes one look at me and hops away…

The Tennis Court


The tennis court was cold and wet,

So we couldn’t even play one set.

Love-all forever,

In horrendous weather,

But, at least no-one noticed, I’d sold our net!
