Set up podium tennis. Children have massive fight with each other. Have a few angry hits myself after they storm inside. Why HIT can’t HIT we HIT just HIT have HIT fun HIT like HIT a HIT normal HIT fucking HIT family HIT It was hard to put in the lawn because, although lush and spongey to walk on, the ground is so hard. Gonna need a deeper hole. Brought it in so it doesn’t get rusty when it rains, which it looks like it will soon. Now I feel a bit flat because the fun thing wasn’t fun for them. I’m gonna stop pouting and make some bolognaise I think.
Actually I think it might be called totem tennis and I miss named it? It’s a pole you stick into the lawn with a tennis ball on a long string attached to the top on a spiral so it spins around when you hit it. You get a couple of bats with it and you can play solo or with two people.
I’d never call it that, and IRL would probably jovially correct anyone who called it that, but at the same time, I wouldn’t be confused if I heard/read it. I’d know what you mean
ooh I see, had one of those as a kid too and there were fights :)
I’m finding the cheapo manual auger I got ages ago has made doing clean holes in tough ground a lot easier. Surprisingly seems to be getting more and more use. Could be worth a thought.
An auger 🤔 I feel like we’ve probably got one somewhere… or is it an awl I’m thinking of? I think I’m remembering we have an awl for making holes in leather etc. Geez, a couple of weeks with no work and I feel like my brain’s turning to mush lol 🚫💡

Have to admit I have no idea what that is.

Oh yep I’ve always known that as totem tennis. Never years of podium tennis
Yeah I misremembered the name. Doing that a bit lately whilst not working. Apparently working in a factory keeps me sharp. God help me 🤦🏼♀️
How about tennis ball on a pole? :D
