  1. Hello, and sorry for having not commented for ages – I continue to enjoy the captions and greatly value the time, effort and imagination you put into creating them.

    To get the ball rolling again on my commenting (sorry – awful pun), I feel I must make an observation on the mallet photograph: Croquet Girl’s technique is really shocking. Doesn’t she know that, instead of holding it out to one side, she’s supposed to put the big stick between her legs?

    Best wishes

    1. You’re welcome back, tom! I understand it’s a difference between American and British technique, to some extent. There is a similar difference in whether to put your foot on one ball before striking in an attempt to whack the other away, although in that respect I think females on both sides of the Atlantic prefer to use a knee or just attach electrodes to the scrotum and make the nasty things jump about that way.

      Best wishes
