Why has no-one mentioned pickleball on this blog in the last six months? Or the Stanley cup? Is this really still Marc posting on here...?
To fix the first one at least, let's riff off this.

Original
"This is a photograph of the original pickleball, held in 1912 just before the Titanic sank," said Emma. She was holding up a sepia-toned picture of eighteen women gathered around a firepit, with long wooden trestle tables in the background holding the pickling equipment.
"What are they pickling, miss?" asked one of the WrongStart students.
"Balls," said Emma, ignoring the outbreak of laughter.

Greg - hah :)

And maybe if I stop replying to comments long enough I can just hand the blog off to somebody else and no one will notice...
