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…

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!
