A game of two halves.

 Two things were for sure:

• The Whangarei Heads Tennis Club, for very old people, was a very grand affair and not what you'd expect to find in a one horse town and
• Greg was a pretty damn good tennis player, but a self opinionated bastard.  

That's Greg in white.

On this Tuesday (yesterday) Greg sat sipping a Cleanskin chardonnay and planning how he would take apart a silly old bugger who had challenged both his intellect and his tennis skills.

He figured that Peter, his opponent who only seemed to drink instant coffee, would be impressed by his wine tastes.

Peter showed up wearing silly glasses. Greg thought it was really cheating because the glasses would make the tennis ball look much bigger and that was an unfair advantage.

Never mind, Greg knew he could take this guy.

Greg felt like this...

But actually looked like this...

It was going to be an exciting match and all the other club members were already seated around the court.

Mavis, who was 88 years old, said that Greg looked cute. Sarah, who was 86, told Mavis that she didn't like Peter's glasses. She said it made him look like a fish. Margaret, 81, said he probably thought the glasses were a chick magnet and they all laughed.

Then Richard (of RBB), who was writing the post, ran out of time because he had things to do.
